Hello!
So my first ever blog post was me raving about a vintage watch brand I had discovered, Olivia Burton (see post here). Unfortunately, the hummingbird watch I purchased turned out to be faulty and I had to (sadly) return it. Still with faith in OB I went on to purchase another of their watches, but this time a different model. I still have love for the hummingbird design but the bad experience prevented me from buying that specific one again.. though I still wish I had it :(
ANYWAY. So, after browsing their fantastic collection (view here), I settled for the Wonderland watch in dusty pink and gold. I ordered from The Dressing Room (view here), somewhere I have never shopped from before. Their delivery was fast and they even offered 10% discount for first time shoppers. When my parcel arrived I was definitely not disappointed!
It came in a gorgeous pink gift bag with their label on it, with the watch box wrapped in black tissue paper. It was just very impressive for an online order as normally items come in a plastic bag or standard box. The watch itself was absolutely gorgeous and I fell in love with it as I expected (yay)!
Due to the watch face being sandblasted in nature, I have noticed the watch appears to be a varied colour of gold in different light settings. I have shown various photos above to help you guys see what I mean. I am quite fond of this feature though!
It is water resistant (not water proof) and has Japanese quartz movement. Overall, I am extremely pleased with this watch but I just hope it doesn't disappoint like the last, or I will be heartbroken! :( It is available in lilac & gold, brown & rose gold, and mink & rose gold too.
Keep well guys!
