The Ice Burst belongs to Olivia Burton's Capsule collection, a seasonal line built around a single visual idea taken further than the mainline allows. Here, that idea is winter rendered as jewellery: the dial is hand-painted with a textured ice finish, a snowflake motif worked into it in micro-pavé crystals, and the bezel set with stones to match. It is unambiguously decorative in intent. At 35mm across and 8.3mm deep, it sits flat and light — 79g on the wrist — and the gold link bracelet dresses it up without adding bulk. The folding clasp is clean to operate, though resizing the bracelet means removing individual links rather than using a quick-adjust system, so it is worth getting the fit right at the point of purchase.

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 explained

Will 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 compared

Does 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 compared

What size strap does it take?

16mm. 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 35mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
