A little while ago I posted a thread looking for a nice watch for a few hundred quid, i've just found this...(apologies if a repost)

http://xlwatches.com/rothenschild-crusader-automat...

Think they're made by TW Steel, which i quite like the look of.

Could anyone shed some light, i've never heard of these guys, are they reliable, or cheap tat?

cheers folks

Well I suppose it is a few hundred quid, so you're halfway there.

Never heard of them, but looks like another one of the many companies dressing up fairly ordinary movements with a giant hunk of unobtanium and glass. It isn't for me.

What sort of thing are you after?

My opinion probably counts for little but TBH that really isn't at all nice.

I'd rather have an actual TW Steel TBH (or something else - plenty available). They might be arguably pricey, quartz and too large for some but the simpler designs look a lot nicer than that - IMHO of course

Still, as long as you go into any purchase with eyes open it doesn't matter.
