RSW Outland Round Watch For 2011

For 2011 RSW gives the Outland watch range a round case - well sort of. The case itself is round, but the large, broad lug structure remains similar to that on the square dialed version. I'll have to wait until I get one on the wrist for a final assessment, but I think the design is neat, especially the pictured version that is a chronograph version of the Outland 3H. "3H" stood for three hands, so is the chronograph going to be called the 5H? Who knows. It might just be the Outland Chronograph. There is also a round cased version of the original RSW Outland watch that tells the time via rotating discs versus hands.

The case is steel and can be had PVD coated black. You can also get a gem-set version (though I have no idea why you'd want to with a design like this). I love the chronograph with its digital style numerals and bold design. The disc based version might just be weirder than the original, and fans of the design might just love that.

RSW Outland H3 Watches

These new watches from RSW (Rama Swiss Watch) are more mainstream versions of the interesting RSW Outland that came out a few years ago. I have to admit I like these watches a lot, and there are even more versions than the ones you see above. With at least 7 color combos, this is going to be one of the most colorful avant garde sport watches out there. The case is mechanically sophisticated, with RSW's unique pull out crown system. It is in PVD (or matte) steel with a rubber strap. There is even an 18k pink gold cased variant, and of course versions with diamonds as well (are diamonds ALWAYS necessary?).

The case size is 44mm wide but not super thick at just 12mm. Inside the watch will be an automatic Swiss movement (not sure the specific model). The dial of the Outland 3H (which stands for "three hands") has some influence from their Tool Diving watch, as well as from digital watches. Looking at the font for the 12 o'clock indicator and you'll see something that looks appropriate on a digital alarm clock. The colors which include, white, orange, blue, and green are all done in SuperLumiNova luminant. In addition to the matte black dials, there will also be white, silver, or yellow dials (with black markers on them). Those should be pretty cool as well.

Overall and exciting collection for the modern guy who wants something unique, unconventional, but still easy to use on a daily basis. Most RSW Outland 3H models should be a few thousand dollars in price.
