How come oris don't have a sub-forum? but bremont does!

"The dive watch connection" and Oris don't have a sub-forum but [not here long enough for f bombs in the main forum] bremont does!

Accessing the Oris sub-forum required 100 posts and then you enter through the crocks sub-forum.

can't have a sub-forum for every brand. Having a sub-forum would be predicated on forum member's interest in a brand.
the mods have a good handle on what brands are most represented and/or flavor of the month type things.
This is not disrespecting Oris, or any other brand that does not have a sub-forum. It would be a waste of space to have a sub-forum with one or two posters....that level of participation would be better served in the main forum.

that being said.....I feel the need for a Nomos forum say in July. Just' sayin'

love the brand but ORIS does not seem to have much action in the US. WUS forum is slow..... Friends of Oris seems to have a lot of activity and participation. Aussie's love the brand...

Brand forums usually suck. We used to have a bunch of them but everyone just posted in the main forum. Look at Watchfreeks. They must have 20 brand forums that go weeks without activity.

I heard from Shorty who heard from Brad who heard from Shap who was told by Wu that we do not have an Oris sub forum due to their issue with oddly done lugs widths and end links. :scratch:

Do the owners of Oris know how to swim? :think:

A very fiery statement for a guy with 33 posts..

Maybe we can pull off an Oris sub after we finish the transgender subforum.
I'll text Wu.

Yeah, the Brice sub forum went through like 6 Tudor Sub-sub forums and now there is nothing.

I heard it was because one of the mods finally figured out how to spell Briemount, and he had to write it down someplace he'd remember, so he got a 12 year old to make him a sub forum. Oris, on the other hand, still has them all flummoxed.
If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

A better question is "why does Bremont have a sub-forum at all"?
