Stepping up in Vivienne Westwood's range
The Brompton collection draws its name and its character from a particular kind of dressing — urban, deliberate, with one eye on fashion and one on longevity. This piece centres on a textured dial with an ocean-floor topographical pattern, Swarovski crystal hour markers, and the brand's orb emblem held in gold tone against the silver ground: details that read as considered rather than busy. At 31mm it sits proportionally on a smaller wrist without retreating to the point of invisibility, and the mix of matte and polished finishing on the steel case changes the watch's mood depending on the light it catches. The butterfly clasp and adjustable link bracelet mean the fit can be tailored precisely, and 85g is present enough to feel substantial without pulling at the wrist by the end of the day.

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.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as women's.
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.
