The PuristS are about quality and not quantity...

I also noticed the absence of an IWC forum very quickly upon joining PuristS.

All of the individual forums have a moderator directly assigned to manage said forum. It is substantial work to maintain a forum to the high quality currently exhibited by PuristS management. You may notice that the PuristS website has become the destination for horological information worldwide, PuristS even surpasses older established websites in terms of the knowledge and information we have on this site (honestly, I'm not trying to flatter our moderators, but I do want to thank them for bringing together such a great group of watch-fans and providing quality in the information we receive).

I'm sure that we will have an IWC forum in the future, but baby steps ensure a strong foundation. Grow too fast and you'll experience growing pains and disorganization.

Nevertheless, we are bound to have extensive coverage of IWC watches, including more information and pictures about the new models that premiered at SIHH as soon as the information becomes available.

Doable, Jos, but not easy, as you perfectly said

Each forum provides to his moderator a lot of work. If the brand doesn't want to play the game, I don't see why we would invest our time. It's sad for IWC Lovers, I agree, but this is the situation...For now. Best, Nicolas
