Cartier Cougar Gold & Steel Quartz
GM (Large Size) – Ref. 187904 – 1990s
Offered here is a selection of five Cartier Cougar GM watches, reference 187904, dating from the 1990s. Bold, elegant, and unmistakably Cartier, the Cougar stands out with its rounded case design and balanced blend of gold and steel—an iconic look from Cartier’s modern classic era.
Case
The gold and stainless steel case measures 33mm, corresponding to the GM (large) size, offering strong wrist presence while remaining refined and versatile. The Cougar’s signature rounded silhouette gives it a distinctive personality, setting it apart from Cartier’s more angular designs.
Each watch features a blue sapphire cabochon crown, adding the unmistakable Cartier touch, and is fitted with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal for everyday durability.
Dial
The watches are fitted with a stunning white dial with black Roman numerals, delivering excellent legibility and timeless elegance. A date window at 3 o’clock adds practical functionality, while blued steel hands provide the classic Cartier contrast against the crisp dial.
Movement
Powering these watches is the reliable Cartier quartz calibre 87, known for its precision and low-maintenance performance—ideal for daily wear while retaining the refined aesthetics expected from the Maison.
Strap
Each watch is fitted with a handmade leather strap, crafted in Belgium, offering comfort and a refined finish that complements the gold and steel case.
Why This Watch Stands Out
The Cartier Cougar GM Ref. 187904 represents a confident and elegant expression of 1990s Cartier design. With its large 33mm case, two-tone construction, sapphire crystal, and practical date function, it offers an excellent balance between luxury, durability, and everyday usability.
