Community Guidelines

RedBar Frankfurt is a private community of watch collectors built on trust, mutual respect and discretion.
These simple principles help ensure that our gatherings remain enjoyable for everyone.

Respect

Treat every person and every watch with care and respect.
Harassment, threats, or damage to property will result in immediate exclusion from the community.

We follow Wheaton’s Law: Don’t be a dick.

Members should not invite guests if they are unable to attend themselves.

Guests

Potential members and guests should always be cleared with the chapter head in advance.

Discretion

Please do not geotag or publicly disclose the location of RedBar gatherings.
