Vintage Courreges Quartz Watch Gold Red Crocodile-Effect Strap

The polished gold-tone case frames a white dial, its minimalist face left unbranded in keeping with Courreges’ commitment to modernist restraint. The red crocodile-effect leather strap brings a flash of saturated colour and tactile depth, offsetting the simplicity of the case with a graphic, textural contrast. A gold-tone crown completes the composition, positioned at three o’clock for classic symmetry.

This quartz wristwatch is constructed with a gold-tone metal case and paired with a crocodile-effect leather strap in vivid red, secured with a traditional buckle closure. The serial number is engraved on the reverse, reflecting the brand’s approach to understated authentication. Interior mechanism is not visible; the watch is sold as-is, not functioning and intended for display or restoration purposes only.

Likely dating to the early 2000s, this Courreges watch reflects the brand’s lineage of Space Age minimalism, founded by André Courrèges in Paris in 1961. The streamlined case and absence of overt branding signal a design language rooted in the maison’s architectural approach, prioritising silhouette and colour over ornamentation — a principle that defined Courreges’ accessories across decades.
