Vivienne Westwood Orb VV006SLSL Silver Dial Stainless Steel Women's Watch

An orb crown on a delicate wrist

The Vivienne Westwood Orb VV006SLSL features the orb charm, the house's emblematic signature, as a mobile pendant beneath the silver dial. This detail transforms a classic three-hand watch into a genuine jewellery accessory that catches the eye at first glance, where a standard watch would go unnoticed on the wrist. The orb motif, this small sphere topped with a cross and encircled by a ring, encapsulates the brand's style and makes this reference a piece you notice immediately in any outfit.

The 32 mm stainless steel case remains deliberately compact. This size suits a delicate wrist without ever overflowing or slipping, whereas men's models of 40 mm and above appear too imposing on a feminine frame. The shorter format also brings welcome lightness throughout the day, a criterion often underestimated when choosing a watch.

• Luminous silver dial that reflects light and remains legible in all circumstances, by day or under soft lighting.
• Heart-shaped seconds hand that sweeps across the dial continuously, a playful and romantic touch characteristic of the Orb line.
• Stainless steel bracelet with links, resistant to daily scratches and very easy to clean with a simple gesture.

The silver dial and its heart-shaped seconds hand in detail

The mineral glass protects a silver dial treated to remain sharp under direct lighting as well as indoors. The three central hands indicate the time with quartz precision, whilst the small heart-shaped seconds hand adds an immediately recognisable identity, absent from the brand's more understated lines. This visual signature sets the VV006SLSL apart from a generic women's watch and justifies its status as a must-have piece.

Compared to a Vivienne Westwood with a leather strap, this all-steel version gains in durability and versatility. The metal pairs equally well with office wear or an evening ensemble, without fear of stains or the wear that leather suffers over time, which marks easily and tolerates moisture poorly. It is a reassuring choice for intensive daily wear.

How to wear it every day

Thanks to its 32 mm diameter, this watch slips easily under a shirt or jacket sleeve. It pairs with a delicate bracelet or a discreet ring to create a refined layered look, without overloading the wrist or weighing down the silhouette. Its neutral silver colour tone complements your entire wardrobe.

• Working day: the silver dial and steel bring a polished and professional appearance in meetings.
• Evening out: the Orb charm catches the light and advantageously replaces an additional piece of jewellery.
• Gift idea: a compact format and an iconic motif that appeal to a wide age range.

Simple maintenance to preserve its lustre

The stainless steel bracelet is cleaned with a soft cloth slightly dampened, then dried immediately to prevent limescale marks. Regular passage between the links removes accumulated dust and preserves the metal's shine over the long term, without aggressive products. A soft-bristled brush is sufficient to dislodge residue lodged in the crevices of the links.

With its water resistance of 50 M (5 ATM), the watch withstands splashes, rain and hand washing without particular concern. It is advisable to remove it before a prolonged hot shower, as steam can eventually fatigue the case's water-resistance seals. Also avoid manipulating the crown when the watch is wet in order to protect the internal mechanism. By storing the watch away from moisture and dust between wears, you further extend the shine of the steel and the clarity of the silver dial. A soft case or pouch is sufficient to protect it from micro-scratches caused by contact with other metal objects in a drawer or bag.
