Describe the watch in buyer language
An alert can include a brand, model, reference, maximum price, dial, condition, or a detail such as box and papers. You do not need to translate your search into marketplace filters first.
Specific alerts produce better notifications. A request for an Omega Speedmaster under $5,000 is actionable; an alert for every Omega listing is too broad for an instant notification feed.

Why WatchSnipe waits for listing details
A Reddit title can appear before the seller has finished the body. WatchSnipe does not treat a title-only post as alert-ready: it waits for the description and keeps checking before deciding whether the watch and price match.
That delay is intentional. A slightly later alert with a real asking price and seller context is more useful than an immediate notification built from an incomplete title.
From alert to market context
WatchSnipe maintains a separate listing database so each alert can improve the market view. Sold signals and same-reference observations support public price checks, price maps, and Premium Deal Alerts when the comp threshold is met.
WatchSnipe is a discovery tool, not a marketplace, escrow service, or appraisal. You still verify the seller, condition, and transaction terms on the source.
