Most watch collectors at this point know watchrecon.com, its the biggest and by far the cleanest and most cleanly developed aggregator of watch forum FS listings across a large range of sites, they've even got an iPhone app now for when you want to watch-windowshop on the run: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/watchrecon/id564707991?mt=8

Well we've now been added to their search list, so all FS listings of vintage Omegas and other pieces will now be indexed.

You can check out how the OF listings appear via this link: http://www.watchrecon.com/?source[]=OF

Thanks Sammy From Watchrecon.com for the hard work!

Double like, actually... the exposure to the forum will be great, not just only in sales, but also in spreading the knowledge which we are privileged to have here!

Thank YOU dsio, and any involved too.

Excellent! That makes selling one step easier. I list on WatchNet just so my sale will come up on the search engines like Elite Deal Seeker and Watch Recon. Now I don't have to bother.

What does "selling" a watch mean?

Can't do it; won't do it. It gives me an excuse to buy another watch box.

My watch box has a revolving door on the front. ::rimshot::

It's a good thing not only for the forum's exposure, but also for an even more reliable and robust database with prices, great stuff!

My recent FS listing in the Private Sales section [here] does not show up when searching Watchrecon... is the linkage still working?

We might be onto something here, yours is actually one of only two that didn't get listed, but yours is also one of only two that doesn't use the FS tag, (there's a series of titles, FS, FSOT, Sold etc available when you create or edit a thread) instead you've got FS: as part of the title rather than just the watch name there and the FS selected as the type. I'm looking through the list to see if there are any others like yours but its probably just that WR are searching for FS not FS:

Think its confirmed now, found a third listing with FS: and it too wasn't indexed but couldn't find any others with the normal FS listing that hadn't been crawled. I've edited yours and the other two to be FS and we'll see if they get indexed now.
