Vivienne Westwood Hanwell 37mm Unisex Watch Silver
Ref. VV335SLSL
Sits in Vivienne Westwood’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Vivienne Westwood watches we list, which start at £140.
Price range £140 to £325 across 34 Vivienne Westwood watches in stock.The Hanwell takes its silhouette from the world of luxury sports watches — broad fixed bezel, integrated bracelet, layered dial — then makes clear whose hands built it. The bezel is engraved with Westwood's name and founding year, the crown carries the planetary orb, and a second orb sits on the dial itself. The punk-heritage branding is not subtle, and it is not meant to be. At 37mm the case sits squarely in unisex territory, and the integrated bracelet keeps the whole thing reading as one continuous piece rather than a case with a strap attached. The two-layer sandwich dial uses cut-out baton markers rather than printed indices, which gives the silver surface some depth. Weighted at 110 grams on the wrist, the bracelet has enough presence to feel considered.

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?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
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?
18mm. 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.
Will it fit my wrist?
Lug-to-lug is 33mm, which suits wrists from roughly 15cm (6 inches) upward.
Lug-to-lug decides fit more than case diameter does.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as unisex, and at this size it suits any wrist that takes the dimensions.
Cheapest place to buy
Goldsmiths is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
Who are Goldsmiths?
Goldsmiths has been selling watches in Britain since 1778 and is part of the Watches of Switzerland Group, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. They are an authorised dealer, so a watch comes with the manufacturer’s own warranty.
