Vivienne Westwood Carnaby VV163SLGR Green Dial Women's Watch

The Vivienne Westwood Carnaby VV163SLGR at a glance

The Carnaby VV163SLGR features a 34 mm stainless steel case and a green dial with two hands, offering a refined reading that suits slender wrists perfectly. This is a dress watch designed for those seeking a discreet piece with genuine personality, far from the usual neutral dials. Here are the essential points to consider before choosing:

• 34 mm case in stainless steel, discreet and feminine profile suited to everyday wear
• Green dial with clean two-hand display, no seconds hand
• Leather strap supple and comfortable from first wear, easy to change
• Quartz movement requiring no mechanical servicing, rare time adjustments
• Mineral glass resistant to daily scratches and minor impacts
• Water resistance 30 M (3 ATM) for splashes and light rain

A green dial that stands out without overwhelming

The deep green of the dial remains a rare shade on a dress watch, which immediately sets the Carnaby apart from the more expected silver or black models. This detail makes all the difference to the eye: where most women's watches play it safe with neutrality, the VV163SLGR dares a colour full of character that catches the light without ever becoming excessive. The two-hand display, without a seconds hand, reinforces this deliberate simplicity and lets the gaze rest on the emblematic orb of the house, a true Vivienne Westwood signature. This graphic choice makes the VV163SLGR a versatile piece that works equally well with office wear or an evening out. The green pairs surprisingly well with neutral tones, camel, off-white or black, and transforms with the light, from forest green indoors to brighter reflections in daylight.

What the leather strap changes in daily wear

The leather strap hugs the wrist and gains patina over the months, unlike cold stainless steel that feels rigid against the skin. This suppleness makes all the difference on long days: the leather exerts no uncomfortable pressure and follows wrist movements. It can be replaced in seconds if you wish to vary colours or refresh the watch, extending its useful life well beyond that of the original strap. One practical consideration: keep it away from prolonged water exposure. With water resistance of 30 M (3 ATM), the Carnaby handles splashes, quick hand washing and light rain without issue, but not showers or swimming. Leather kept dry, wiped after a warm day and kept away from perfumes and creams, lasts considerably longer and retains its original suppleness without stiffening or cracking.

For which wrist and which style

With its 34 mm diameter, the Carnaby suits slender to medium wrists seeking a watch that makes a statement without being bulky. It is a balanced size: visible enough to assert a style, restrained enough to remain elegant under a shirt cuff. Compared to the house's jewellery formats of 24 to 25 mm, it offers a more legible dial whilst maintaining a refined appearance. It pairs with monochrome outfits as well as prints, the green dial playing the role of a colour accent that discreetly structures the silhouette. In practice, it transitions from suit to jeans effortlessly and suits daily wear from morning to evening. Supplied with a 2-year warranty and dispatched quickly, it is a safe choice for those wanting a branded watch with real character.

Whether treating yourself or giving as a gift, the Carnaby ticks all the boxes of a watch that is both practical for everyday use and remarkable on the wrist.
