Since the forum updgrade is watch recon not working for anyone else?
Just curious, that is the easiest most efficient way to look at watches for sale. I know TRF and watch recon are not affiliated which each other Thanks! |

Chrono24 is probably the easiest source online as they list thousands of watches from around the world.

I have found Watch recon to be very helpful.
I haven’t used it for a couple of weeks c24 is a bit quicker to navigate but the listings are comparatively not as well curated. Often prices that are very ambitious

It still works for me when searching TRF but it hasn’t “updated” any listings for 3 days.

Watchrecon is a collection of forum listings as you may know...a search engine and I think a very good one. The founder has an interesting story. Chrono24 is a commercial site and useful to gauge street price and availability but generally a completely different group of dealer offered and FSBO watches.

WatchRecon is great. Fun just exploring different watches. It’s a great aggregator and useful tool to also self-appraise average selling prices of a particular model.

I talked to Sam/Sy (owner). He said he needs to update the base OS on the server to fix the issue... He is an intelligent guy, a great friend, & a great guy. He created watchrecon just for FUN (non profits at all) and also doesn't plan to sell watchrecon even he got some good offers for it.

I’m curious what’s not working on iOS.
I noticed if the toggle for lazy loading in Safari settings (beta settings) is enabled, the product thumbnails don’t render. Same thing happens on DSW’s site and I think Sohais. It’s weird and pretty sure it’s default on for iOS14.2,3 and 4. They may not know this, that some customers can’t see the products.

I am curious about this too.
To be clear, the issue I am seeing is WatchRecon is not pulling results from TRF. The most recent search results on Watch Recon that are from TRF was Jan 14. I'm hoping the issue gets patched because like most everyone here I use Watch Recon mostly to search TRF. |

Apologies for not coming here to update everyone on this thread. Just 20 minutes ago, I was able to put together a temporary fix to resume indexing rolexforums. Listings are being backfilled as we speak.
Two weeks ago, watchrecon started encountering an SSL issue connecting to rolexforums. Other sites were unaffected so I wasn't sure what happened initially. Long story short, the OpenSSL client library used by the watchrecon crawler was a bit too old, and unfortunately the only long term fix available was updating the server linux operating system entirely. To do an OS update without disrupting WatchRecon service requires planning and time. Not only that, I need to update some code in preparation for the OS update as well, and test those changes carefully. Nevertheless, now that there's a temporary solution, everything should be seamless for watchrecon users. Once again, apologies for not fixing the issue sooner and also leaving everyone hanging without an update in the mean time. Thanks for your long time support for the site! |
