So, does anyone have any experience with this watchgang deal. It's says it's $29/month and you receive a watch every month. One person a month will receive a Rolex but only one a month. Watches range in brands,types, and models. It says they have a watch swap if you don't like it when it comes in, but you have to be a member to view the swap.

It's on Instagram too. If you were on Insta, follow their page and you can see some of the watches they send out. They vary but all look pretty decent. I think the worst part, or the best part, depending on who you are, is that you have no idea what the watch you will be getting is.
Kind of reminds me of the CD clubs from years ago.
At $30 a month, I'm tempted to give it a go for a couple of months just to see.
If I do, I will post up a picture of what I get here. If I don't, I won't :)

Thank you. I'm not on instagram but I'll see if I can find a friend that is. Pics would be great if you do join.

Looks like they send out a lot of SO&CO branded stuff and a few of a little everything else.
Hope this helps :)
They have 6500 followers on Instagram. Not sure how many on Facebook but that's not bad odds of getting something descent if they have a total of say 8,000 members.
From the amount of "likes" each photo on their page gets and the fact it's only 3 or so months into business for them, I'd say those odds are closer to 1 in 2,000 members. But I'm just guessing.

i just checked it out... I dont know, I didn't get a good feeling.
I looked at some of the comments and it is mostly them saying what watch a lucky person will get. I would have like to see more "happy cusotmers"

I care less about the one big watch and a lot more about the other watches. I love watches anywhere from $20 and up so I'm more interested in those average watches that they send out.

I subscribed for a month just to see what I got. The VAST majority of subscribers get $60 fashion watches. If you're OK with that, it's a good deal.

Michael Kors? Really? Let us know what they send you. It might be fun, but I can't see ever wearing most of those watches.

Looking forward to seeing what you get!
I agree that it would be just for fun and most would probably end up on eBay or CraigsList as soon as I got them. Lol

Not bad.
How does it wear, accuracy, etc...


Sent from the RWI mobile app
It's quartz, so accuracy is fine. Haven't worn it, but it feels good for $30. They sell for $50-60 on Amazon, so I'm not disappointed. But I cancelled. If they have 6500 members, the chances of getting a Rolex are almost nil.

This is what I got this month. Seems like a lot of the subscribers got this one.

Giving it one more month. If I get another of the same brand, I'm done.

My guess is, that they simply buy wholesale and make a decent profit when sending out those pieces. That you got the same brand twice sort of proofs it. If it sells for $60 on Amazon, they might get a piece for $10 or even less and you're paying $29/mo.
With 6,500 active members that's a nice profit margin and leaves enough room to send out 1 decent watch per month (Rolex).

I never signed up but joined their Facebook group for a bit. Seems a complete waste of money and some really annoying members with real crap watches. Create to owner for making a killing off of it though
