Vintage Courrèges Gold-Tone and Black Quartz Watch Late 1980s

Polished gold-tone metal frames a round black dial, its minimalist face marked only by the Courrèges logo and slender baton hands. The case slips into a matching gold-tone link bracelet, joined by a textured black strap that sets off the dial’s dark surface. A compact clasp secures the bangle, giving the watch a streamlined, graphic silhouette on the wrist.

The late 1980s to early 1990s saw Courrèges lean into a pared-back futurism—logo watches and accessories sold in Japan, the house’s spaced lettering and simplified forms charting a course between Paris and Tokyo. Here, the lowercase ‘courrèges’ on the dial and the serial engraving on the caseback point directly to that era, when the brand’s space-age identity was reimagined for everyday objects.

Gold-tone hardware throughout, with minor surface scratches to the bezel and clasp in line with careful wear. The interior and movement are not visible; no accessories accompany the watch. A clear example of Courrèges’ late twentieth-century design, where the logo itself becomes the focal point.
