The Aviators Thread

Greetings all and hope everyone is in good health.
I’m hoping to start a thread here for aviation enthusiasts and pilots who also happen to be into watches (like me) 😀
A place to shoot the breeze on all things aviation related and to share stories and pics. To me, the world of aviation and watches have always been inextricably linked so I thought it fitting to create a thread which brings these two areas of interest together.

I’ve always been into planes and flying since I was a child, and…

Fair or Foul? Instagram Watch Influencers

Fair or Foul?

There is an Instagram watch “influencer” and fellow Omegaforum member (no names) that gets free watches from Zodiac and others, posts a picture, then sells the watch to fund future purchases. Is this fair or foul?

My take – as a brand owner I used to send free product to Instagram influencers but I quickly found out that it did little to nothing. Most would post 1 picture that would get lost in their feed. Others wouldn’t even post at all. So now I wait till it’s someone…
