Stepping up in Olivia Burton's range
The Starlight Colour line is Olivia Burton's answer to the question of what happens when a dress watch gets a genuinely bold dial rather than a safe neutral one. This particular piece centres on a lacquered orange — described in-house as sweet mandarin — that reads as saturated and warm against the gold PVD case without tipping into garish. The minimalist hour markers and Arabic numerals at twelve and six keep the dial legible without cluttering what is plainly meant to be read as colour first. At 36mm and 8.2mm deep, the case sits squarely in mid-size territory and wears closer to jewellery than a tool, the slim profile keeping it flat under a cuff or sleeve. The gold-toned multi-link bracelet is well-matched to the case tonally, and at 89g the whole thing has a satisfying presence on the wrist without weight that becomes noticeable by afternoon.

Learn more about Olivia Burton
Lesa Bennett and Jemma Fennings started Olivia Burton in London in 2012, coming from fashion rather than watchmaking and treating the watch as an accessory to be designed rather than a instrument to be engineered.
That showed in the product: illustrated dials, floral and bee motifs, applied three-dimensional details, mesh and leather straps in soft colours. The bee became the signature, and the brand found a large audience among buyers who wanted something with a point of view at under £200.
Movado Group acquired the company in 2017, placing it alongside Movado, Ebel, Concord and MVMT. Production and distribution run through Movado; the design identity has stayed recognisably its own.
The watches are quartz and the appeal is the artwork, not the movement — which is a fair description of what the brand set out to do in the first place.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
No. At 30m it will survive rain and handwashing, but not submersion of any kind.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
17mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's, though at 36mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
