Reference: Watch Identifier
Scanner & Collection Tracker
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
Photograph any watch. Reference names it, makes a studio portrait and keeps it in your private collection. Start with 5 free identifications.
Identify watches from a photo and keep the ones you spot in your own collection.
The app interface is currently available in English.
SPOT A WATCH
Take a photo or choose one from your library. Reference helps identify the brand, model and, when the details support it, the reference number. Successful identifications are saved to your private collection. You can review the result and correct it afterward.
BUILD YOUR COLLECTION
Keep watches you have spotted alongside the ones you own. Return to the photographs, references and background that made each watch interesting. Your collection is private.
MAKE EVERY DISCOVERY COUNT
Work toward achievements for your discoveries, favorite watchmakers and collecting habits. Choose the badges you want to show on your profile. Eligible camera captures count toward spotting achievements.
KEEP A WEAR HISTORY
Log the watches you own and see what you actually wear. Your private wear history stays separate from the wrist checks you choose to share.
JOIN THE CONVERSATION
Post a wrist check, follow collectors, appreciate a watch and leave a comment. Public posts are moderated. Report and block controls are available in the app.
REFERENCE PRO
Get the monthly identification and watch-image allowances shown in the app, monthly wear summaries, and private purchase, service and value records. Five introductory identifications, manual collection entries, basic wear history and community participation are available without Pro.
Reference helps with identification; it does not authenticate watches. Similar models may need another photograph or more information. Generated watch portraits can differ from the original. Private values are records you enter, not appraisals.
Optional subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled through your Apple account. The store shows the current price and billing period before purchase. Deleting your Reference account does not cancel a subscription.
