A marca is the brand. For example, my favorite marca is Rafael Gonzalez. You can choose your favorite marca to display on your profile. Just like the small Army emblem you have below your info (trading).........I have the marca RG displayed because I am an RG fan.











<----------- Right over there.

Also to add to the dictionary: RG also refers to Ring Gauge, and Vitola refers to a size of a cigar within a Marca.
