Complete list of watch brands and models

PhilipvD · Sep 11, 2015

Dear Omega Forum members,

I am searching the internet to find a complete list of all the watch brands (new and vintage) with the model names.

Does anyone know where I can find such a list?

Appreciate any input!

"Complete?" I'll step out on a limb and say no such resource exists!

I'll start searching for a complete list of all the star's names in the universe. Let's see who finds their list first.

I'd try and do it systematically. Start with Alpha

And work your way through to Omega. ::rimshot::

Thank you. With complete I meant as complete as possible 400 watch brands or something close...

So you have no clue?

I'm fairly sure such a source doesn't exist online. Get thee to a library or a watch related bookstore, brick and mortar or otherwise.

Dr. Ranfft's movement database is probably the closest thing to what you are looking for. http://www.ranfft.de/cgi-bin/bidfun-db.cgi?10&ranfft&2&2uswk

Hi yes I already emailed him! I think that's a good shot.

I will post my findings soon... if I succeed

Can I just say, I am devastated I only got 1 like for this! I thought this was a killer joke!
