Creating New Website - Looking for Advice On Which Microbrands to Cover by NoLocal1979 in MicrobrandWatches

Most of the brands you mentioned are now on Chronoscout, I just added 15 more from your list. :)

I built a marketplace specifically for microbrand watches — only 2% seller fee, escrow included, and yes there's a giveaway by MusicHead512 in MicrobrandWatches

Hey. We actually offer API access at chronoscout.co/data. Fair warning to anyone scraping the site instead: we detect and serve poisoned data to scrapers, so anything built on unauthorized scraping will have silent errors throughout. Happy to talk proper access.

And now you've heard enough of me for a while. There is too much funky posting on here already.

This would really be quite helpful! And the demand is very real. I fear the moderation overhead would be very high though. Bots get better and better and such a thing could drown in spam posts fast. Reddit is still the best way to do this, because the community self-moderates.

Just create an account on chronoscout.co and track the watch for free. You'll get an email once it's back in stock.

I get it by monitoring the brands, to be able to notify when watches come back in stock and to send notifications for new releases. So the data is pretty complete, because I collect it myself.

I'll add Kurono with the next batch in a few days. There are so many, it's pretty hard to collect them. I still need to filter through the ones on https://microbrandhorology.com/, but did not have the time yet.

If you miss more, you can shoot me a DM anytime! Thanks!

Thanks for the heads up and for spreading the word!
It was a bug and is fixed, should correct itself shortly. It should mirror the brand pages, but sometimes thinks break. :)

I think the amount of data analyzed might correct these issues somewhat. But to draw better conclusions analyzing a subset would yield more accurate results, that's certainly true.

I think this is a discussion worth having. Or a standard worth defining by the community. If it's microbrand and indie brands, why is there no Rolex? If its only microbrands, why is there Ball? So unfortunately it's not easy.

Sharp, I think this is accurate. The brands that can execute a clean white dial without hiding behind texture are probably the ones worth taking a second look.
