Olivia Burton Watches | Review

I have been obsessing over Olivia Burton watches for some time now, I first discovered them one afternoon when I was scrolling through ASOS hunting down a new Michael Kors watch but the elegant simple design of the Olivia Burton watches really stood out and since then I have been in love. So when I finally made the purchase from the Olivia Burton website I was left thinking why didn't I just buy it sooner.

The brand is inspired by vintage and catwalk style and the collection is distinctive, contemporary and fun. Olivia Burton aim to be affordable and very wearable bursting of British Style. You can buy them from a number of stockists which include; ASOS, Topshop, Selfridges and Harvey Nichols. However I purchased my watches direct from the Olivia Burton page.

I must admit I found it very hard to pick my watch as I loved all of the designs but in the end I managed to narrow it down to two watches (technically three) that I know I will get loads of wear from.

The packaging of the watches features a sketch style design which is beautiful and goes with the brand perfect.


The first watch that I went for was the Big dial interchangeable strap gift set which includes a black and grey lilac strap. I originally wanted to go for a black strapped watch so when I saw that Olivia Burton had a gift set that you could change the straps I knew this was perfect for me and that I would get so much wear from this. What I also love about this style of watch is the big watch face and this one features a sun ray effect silver dial.

It is so easy to change the straps as I was worried it would be quite tricky but all you do is slide the special mechanism along with your finger nail and it unclips and to put it back on is the same thing, very easy.

This set was priced at £98.00 and I honestly do think that it is worth the extra bit of money as you are really getting two watches for that price... well that is what I keep telling myself.



I also couldn't resist buying a second watch as I really couldn't decide between the two. As I am very into Rose Gold at the moment along with everyone else I had to have this Big dial tan and rose gold watch. Just like the other set the face of the watch is in this beautiful rose gold sun ray effect, this is a real stand out watch.

All the straps from Olivia Burton are soft genuine Leather and the branding is etched on the back of the case as well as it being embossed on the underside of the strap.

The price of this watch was £80.00


There certainly is a watch to suit everyones style and preferences at Olivia Burton as there is a range of designs inspired by many different beautiful things including a woodland collection, an English Rose, Winter garden as well as an enchanted garden collection.

I have my eye on my next purchase from Olivia Burton already which is from the Animal Motifs collection, I think this could lead to a very expensive hobby.
