What You Get With RWB
RWB is built for people who are actively buying, selling and trading watches. It gives you more access across Moda, a private network of serious watch people, and the tools and support to make deals with more confidence.
Sell Across Moda's Watch Groups
RWB members can post watches for sale every day in Moda's watch groups, including Moda Watch Club and 10K & Under. You also get daily access to our WTB/ISO group, giving you another way to source pieces, find buyers and make deals instead of waiting for the right sales post to come along.
Private RWB Trading Group
Get access to Real Watch Buyers: Premium Watch Trading, our private members-only marketplace built specifically for active watch buyers, sellers, collectors and dealers. This is where members buy, sell, trade, source inventory, move pieces and build relationships with people doing the same thing every day.
See What Watches Are Actually Trading For
RWB gives you a front-row view of the market. With the amount of inventory and deal flow moving through the network, you can see real asking prices, price drops, sold pieces and dealer-side activity instead of relying only on retail listings or estimates. Whether you're sourcing inventory or trying to price your own watch, being inside the market matters.
WTB & ISO Access
Looking for something specific? RWB members can post Want to Buy and In Search Of requests to the Moda watch network. Instead of searching listing by listing, put out exactly what you're looking for and let the network come to you.
Build a Reputation That Follows You
Your reputation inside RWB doesn't disappear when the deal is finished. Successful transactions, reference checks and relationships help establish who you are throughout the Moda watch community. The more business you do, the easier it becomes for other members to recognize and confidently work with you.
Fresh Reference Checks
Before a deal, members can run a fresh reference check through the community. See who has actually done business with the person you're dealing with, on what side of the transaction and recently. A fresh check is required for every deal because reputation should be based on current information, not a reference thread from years ago.
Help When a Deal Goes Sideways
You're not left completely on your own after two people agree to a deal. If an RWB transaction turns into a dispute, Moda can step in, review what happened and communicate with both sides. Members are accountable to the rules and reputation of the community.
Middleman Service
Want another layer of protection on a deal? RWB members have access to Moda's middleman service. The watch can be sent through Moda's Sioux Falls headquarters for inspection before continuing to the buyer. 1% fee with a $400 minimum.
Serial Number Checks
RWB members have access to discounted serial number checks for major watch brands, with results typically returned by SMS within 24 hours. Current member pricing: Rolex $300, Audemars Piguet $350, Patek Philippe $850.
Run Auctions
RWB members can run auctions across Moda's eligible watch communities. Start at $0, let the market decide the price and put your watch in front of an active audience of buyers. RWB members receive the reduced 1% auction fee.
Trade More Than Watches
RWB isn't limited to complete watches. Members can also buy and sell watch-related parts and accessories including bracelets, bezels, dials, straps, books and papers, winders and more.
Private RWB Chats
RWB also gets you beyond the Facebook groups and into our private member chats. Dealer members have access to dedicated rooms for general conversation, WTB opportunities and different price ranges, along with regional networking chats. These rooms make it easier to source inventory, move pieces quickly and build relationships with other active members.
A Network Built Around Watches
The biggest value of RWB isn't one feature. It's access. You're putting yourself inside a network of collectors, traders and dealers who are buying and selling watches every single day. You see more inventory, more opportunities, more pricing and more people you can actually do business with. If watches are a serious hobby, side business or full-time business for you, RWB puts you closer to the people and deals that matter.
“It just takes one deal to pay for the cost of membership. More seasoned sellers so always smooth and fast deals. The chats are great for buying, selling, comps. Too many perks to list.”
“Every time I post my watches in both RWB and the normal group, they're either sold in RWB before the post is approved in the normal group.”

Who can apply
RWB applicants need to be current members of Moda Watch Club. You also need either one completed deal in the Moda watch network or a positive reference from a current RWB member. The deal can be on either side, buyer or seller. The reference can come from anyone whose RWB membership is active. If you are not in Moda Watch Club yet, that is the first step.

Questions people ask me
What's the difference between Collector and Dealer level?
Same posting access in RWB. Same WTB reach across the ecosystem. The Dealer tier adds the dealer-only B2B WhatsApp chats organized by price tier, real-time wholesale data from inside the network, and the dealer-to-dealer flow that doesn't surface anywhere else. Recurring price is the same ($1,000/yr or $100/mo). The difference is the $500 vs $1,500 initiation fee.
What does the initiation fee cover?
Application review, reference checks, onboarding, and the team time required to get you set up. It's a one-time fee. After year one, you only pay annual or monthly dues.
Is there a monthly option?
Yes. $100/month for either tier, plus the initiation fee at signup. Monthly is useful if you want to test the network before committing to a year. The annual option is the same price ($1,000/yr) and most members go annual.
Can I upgrade from Collector to Dealer later?
Yes. You'd pay the difference in initiation ($1,000) and you're upgraded immediately. The annual or monthly recurring price doesn't change.
What's the refund policy?
30-day money-back guarantee. If you decide RWB isn't a fit within 30 days, we refund the initiation and the dues. No follow-up questions. After 30 days, dues are non-refundable for the period you've paid for.
