I find it hard to keep up with 2 or more watch forum. Especially if you are someone trying to get into good standing to sell and buy from other users.
Here, TZ-UK and TWF. Have used TRF for research but never participated. WUS looks awful to me, full of vacuous 'new shoes' and 'wear it in health' bs. Not my thing.
Only here and TRF. I don't read or participate over there nearly as much as here. Frankly, this is a much nicer and more genuine crowd of folks, I think.
I was on WUS briefly, but I asked for my account to be deleted within about a week. Too much ego, fanboyism, and general internet trashiness for my taste. Came here at the recommendation of a friend. OF is much better!
Im just on OF, its more user friendly and I appreciate the bluntness, knowledge, and the sarcasm too, I tried WUS and left immediately.
My main forum is Wrist Watch Forums, followed by OF, DWC, and TRF, and I have a WUS account mainly for sales.
Here, TZ and MWR. This is my preferred by far, great community and nice variety of tastes. I like MWR as I like military watches and those guys sure have the knowledge(helpful too), but I'm a very casual collector so rarely post, good reading though. TZ is ok but it's a bit Rolex heavy for my personal taste and it can be amazing the attitudes and bickering you see regularly. This place though has it all, really interesting collections, a nice friendly welcoming vibe and you don't feel you need to have x amount of forum membership years to your name to be included in conversations. Second nicest forum I've joined(my main forum is non-watch related, AVF which I've been on for years and like here is a really great bunch). Actually my first watch forum was CW, but very rarely visit there these days as have zero interest in the brand now and the place I feel is very cliquey these days.
I have accounts at WUS and Timezone however they are very unused. Instagram has impacted my forum time a lot lately. Of my online watch time 40% of it is on OF, 59.9% on IG, 0.1% on other forums.
I'm on TRF and OM. I sometimes look at WUS but the place is just huge and a PITA to navigate through.
Was even before I joined here. Was a dive watch guy for years way before the Internet and forums,had Rolexes and Seikos when I was watersking 25+ years ago and that's what we used to call them. You know the type, the show ponies that used to rock up to races with flash watches, cars and boats ( with stock engines ) the ones that bought their way into the sport more than started at the grass roots beginning. Around the same time a mate had a polproff and after a barmaid asked what the button done, he replied it was a life jacket and she was so impressed
I'm a member of four watch forums: 1. Omega Forums 2. Seikoholics Forums 3. National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors Forums 4. Internet Horology Club 185 Forums
I only post and read on OF. I use WUS and TRF for buying purposes in addition to OF. Sometimes I read a WUS post if it comes up in my google search on a topic.
