About this watch

A distinctive vintage Yves Saint Laurent Swiss-made quartz chronograph, dating to approximately the 1980s. The crisp white dial has black Roman numerals, three chronograph subdials and a date window at three, framed by a polished gold-tone bezel.

The sculpted, approximately 40mm stainless-steel case is set off by a gold-tone crown and pushers. All components are original to the watch, including the original dark navy leather strap and gold-tone YSL buckle. The caseback is engraved Yves Saint Laurent, Stainless Steel, Quartz and Swiss Made. Supplied with the pictured Yves Saint Laurent Collection presentation box and matching outer sleeve.

Brand heritage

The Yves Saint Laurent couture house was founded in Paris in 1961 by designer Yves Saint Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé. Saint Laurent revolutionised fashion with icons such as Le Smoking tuxedo for women (1966) and was the first couturier to launch a luxury ready-to-wear line, Rive Gauche, in 1966.

From the 1970s to the 1990s the house licensed its name to accessories, including Swiss-made watches sold under the Yves Saint Laurent Collection label, which combined couture styling with Swiss movements.
