Does anyone follow or know of any good UK watch influencers on social media?

I quite like The Urban Gentry channel, British guy in US and Watchfinder, if they count?

You could help us out a bit by letting us know what you're trying to flog?

Fashion watches?
Swiss-made watches?
Affordable mechanical watches?
Luxury mechanical watches?
Haute horology?

Each of these would have a different market, hence a different appropriate 'influencer'. E.g. a fashion watch, you're probably best NOT going with someone who is an influencer in the watch world as they probably won't be interested.

No, sorry

Not specifically an influencer, but I like Bark & Jack.

He's fair, but brutally honest, about some of the stuff that gets sent to him.

Apart from myself?
The one that springs to mind immediately is Watch Anish.

Has the OP stumbled over some Archie Luxury videos?

Urban Gentry and Bark & Jack are perfect - thank you very much for that.

I had the misfortune to stumble across his channel a while ago.
What a dick.

[Spice_Weasel]

I could never work out whether he was a spoof or not.

Haha I always have assumed spoof too! One more watch is another channel to watch OP, a Scottish guy living in Australia who typically focuses on the budget watches. Very good though.

Watchfinder channel is great

Thought I'd bite and watch one of the videos. Got to 46 seconds and had to turn it off.

I'm pretty sure they're not a spoof.

I run a Facebook page that highlights new and interesting watches from around the world - both from mainstream and independent manufacturers. Prices of pieces shown range from £8 to around $38M! I'm slowly building an audience and I've had interactions with brands, either via likes or private messages.

To be honest, it's just a creative outlet for me - Notifying others that there are watches out there aside from Rolex ...

I can't advertise the page here, but it's not difficult to find!

Looks good, if you're a facebooker.

Thanks! I may well expand to other platforms soon - Instagram, website.
