Olevs Watches in Kenya: Prices, Best Models and Buying Guide (2026)
By Robert · · 4 min read
Olevs is a newer name for many Kenyan watch buyers, but it is quickly becoming a favourite. Its watches have detailed dials, with chronographs, moon phase displays and crystal accents, at prices that stay well below KSh 6,000. At Roberts Collections, Olevs watches cost from KSh 2,700 to KSh 5,500.
Here is what to expect from the brand and which models to look at first.
What is Olevs?
Olevs is a Chinese watch brand that makes quartz fashion watches for men and women. Its style sits between dress watches and luxury-look chronographs. Expect polished steel, layered dials and plenty of detail.
The main reason people choose Olevs is design for the price. A moon phase display, which shows the current shape of the moon on the dial, is usually found on far more expensive watches. Olevs puts one on a watch that costs under KSh 5,000.

The best Olevs watches
Olevs 3653 Chronograph: the standout
If you buy one Olevs, make it the Olevs Gents Chronograph 3653 (KSh 4,500). It combines a chronograph, a moon phase display and a date window in a stainless steel case, and it is rated 3 ATM water resistant. It is a lot of watch for the money, and it works well with both a suit and a casual shirt.
Olevs 3689: for a bolder look
The Olevs Gents 3689 (KSh 5,500) is the most expensive Olevs we stock. Choose it if you want a watch with more presence for events or as a gift for someone special.
Olevs Ladies 9945: for everyday elegance
The Olevs Ladies 9945 (KSh 3,500) has a stainless steel case, a crystal-accented dial window, a date display and a luminous dial, so it is easy to read in low light. It is dressy enough for work and events, but simple enough to wear every day. For more ladies' options, see our ladies' watches guide.
Olevs 5567: best on a budget
At KSh 2,700, the Olevs 5567 is the most affordable way into the brand. It suits students, first-time watch buyers and anyone who wants a smart watch without spending much.
Is Olevs a good brand?
For the price, yes. Here is a fair summary.
What Olevs does well
- Detailed dials (moon phase, chronograph, crystals) at a low price
- Stainless steel cases
- Matching men's and ladies' styles, which works well for couples
What to keep in mind
- These are quartz fashion watches, not heirloom mechanical watches.
- Water resistance is for splashes and rain. Do not swim or shower with them.
- Busy dials can be harder to read at a glance than a simple three-hand watch.
Olevs vs Poedagar vs Chenxi
All three brands sit in a similar price range, so the choice comes down to style:
- Olevs: the most detailed dials, and the best choice if you want a moon phase.
- Poedagar: a wider range, including automatic and digital models.
- Chenxi: cleaner designs, and especially strong for ladies' and square-case watches.
Tips before you buy
- Check the size. Measure your wrist and compare it with the case. Our watch size guide explains how.
- Learn the pushers. On a chronograph, the buttons beside the crown start, stop and reset the stopwatch. They do not set the time.
- Check how the moon dial works. On some fashion watches the moon disc is a true moon phase, which you set once to match today's moon. On others it is a day/night indicator that turns once every 24 hours. Ask us which one your model has before you set it.
- Use a proper shop for batteries. A careless battery change can break the water seal. We handle battery replacements and repairs in Nairobi.
