Stepping up in Olivia Burton's range
The Grove collection has always been built around stacking — wearing a watch the way you would a fine chain bangle, as part of an arrangement rather than a statement on its own. This reference takes that further, scaling the rectangular case down to 16mm across so that it sits flat against the wrist and disappears into a layered look without dominating it. The black dial reads quietly behind a domed crystal, with the sunray border catching light in a way that keeps it from looking flat. The crocodile-embossed leather strap and gold-plated buckle hold the dressed register without adding bulk.

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.
Will the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
Does it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's.
