Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
The Pop Art collection takes its name seriously: the dial is made from recycled cosmetic packaging, pressed into a confetti of colour that sits behind Roman numerals and silver hands. It is an unusual material choice, and the sustainable sourcing gives the design a point of difference that goes beyond the pattern itself. At 30mm and 7.3mm deep, this sits very close to the wrist and reads more as jewellery than as a watch in the conventional sense. The mesh bracelet adjusts by sliding rather than by links, which means getting the fit exactly right takes seconds. The set includes an electric blue eco-vegan strap for those who want a bolder, more casual version of the same dial, and the two work together as a considered pair rather than an afterthought.

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.
What size strap does it take?
12mm. 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.
