Stepping up in Vivienne Westwood's range
The Bloomsbury collection draws on the architectural geometry of British modernism — structured, considered, resistant to ornament for its own sake — and the orb motif that frames the date window here is exactly that: a house signature used as a functional element rather than decoration applied afterwards. The outer bezel carries the London branding in deep-etched lettering, which reads clearly against the silver dial without competing with it. The bicolour execution pairs polished bare steel with yellow gold PVD across the multi-link bracelet, and the deployant clasp keeps that mixed-metal line unbroken at the wrist. Links are sized to be removed by a specialist, so the fit can be brought in properly rather than left approximate.

Learn more about Vivienne Westwood
Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren opened a shop at 430 King's Road in 1971, and over the next few years it became the outfitter of British punk. Westwood went on to become one of the most decorated designers Britain has produced, with the orb logo — a sovereign's orb with a Saturn ring — as the house signature from 1987.
The watches are licensed rather than made in-house, produced under agreement by a British accessories manufacturer and sold through department stores and jewellers.
They carry the house language directly: the orb on the crown or the dial, tartan and heritage-check straps, asymmetric cases, and a willingness to be decorative that most watch brands avoid. Quartz movements, fashion pricing.
Westwood died in 2022. The house continues, and the watch line with it.

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 comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's, though at 34mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
