Olivia Burton 24000387 Highbury Two Tone Bracelet Watch - W28218
Ref. 24000387
Sits in Olivia Burton’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Olivia Burton watches we list, which start at £55.
Price range £55 to £199 across 100 Olivia Burton watches in stock.The Highbury collection takes its cue from the oversized watches that became a quiet staple of casual dressing — scaled down here to 25mm, which gives the same relaxed, borrowed-from-somewhere feeling in a case that sits almost invisibly on a narrow wrist. The fluted gold-tone bezel and the mixed silver-and-gold bracelet work in the same register: dressed up enough for an evening, light enough to ignore on an ordinary Tuesday. The deep forest green sunray dial is the piece that earns the attention. Roman numerals at the quarters and crystal accents at the other hours keep it from feeling sparse, and the green reads differently under warm and cool light — richer indoors, closer to olive outside. The integrated multi-link bracelet and double push-button clasp sit flush at the wrist, with no gap where a standard buckle would lift.

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.
