Our View
The Cougar is one of Cartier’s most underrated designs, blending the elegance of a dress watch with a slightly sportier aesthetic.
The combination of the off-white Roman dial, blued hands, cabochon crown and riveted bezel creates a watch that is unmistakably Cartier. Elegant, versatile and increasingly uncommon, this is a fantastic choice for collectors seeking something a little different from the more familiar Tank or Santos models.
