    They certainly have become the front line advertiser in this subreddit.

      It’s hard to say that without sounding a bit bitter, but you’re absolutely right. Watches are released almost every day, but most aren’t posted on this sub with the website text copy and pasted like we see here in with almost all CW releases.

      I personally don’t care much if this is the case. I just hope people browse this sub knowing the fact that it’s used heavily for advertising.

      It is a bit fishy OP only ever posts news about watch launches and comments on his own posts, most of which are CW.

        So the cynic in me completely agrees. CW is definitely advertising here.

        But, like, these watches have been really good. I don’t own CW, I hate the CW logo, and I don’t intend to buy a CW, but I can’t not admit that the twelve, the bel canto, and now this have all been fantastic releases. The watch lover in me strangles out the cynic. Let the ads come.

        Tbf I’ve done something similar with Boston Dynamics on my own account and have nothing to do with them. I would see a new video and notice no one had posted it in the engineering subreddit. For 3 on the trot I was the first to post it, always hours after it had been released. If you find something a company does interesting, you normally want to post it in the subreddits and see some discussion about it. Plus, CW is on a bit of a run now with the last 3 releases so it wouldn’t surprise me if that’s the case with other users here.

        With that said its naive not to think CW, and all watch brands tbh, will be using there advertising groups to drum up interest in places like this
