Start with a photograph
Point your camera at the watch box. Dial Log identifies the watches in it and fills in what it recognises, for you to check and confirm.
The photo goes to our scanner and comes back as a list. Nothing is kept, and this is the one part of the app that needs a connection.
Already tracking somewhere else?
Bring your collection in as a JSON file — watches, wear history, straps and service records. Every row is checked before anything changes. The format is documented here.
What it keeps
- wears
Tap once when you put a watch on, once when it comes off. The hours add up on their own.
- hours
Which watch you actually reach for, against the one you thought you did.
- accuracy
Time a movement over days and read its rate in seconds per day.
- straps
Every pairing you've tried, and the ones you keep coming back to.
- service
When it was last serviced, and when it's due again.
- trophies
A case that fills as the collection grows and the hours stack up.
On the phone
Yours first
No marketplace. No strangers. No ads, ever. The people you follow are people who follow you back, and that is the whole network.
Turn the social side off entirely and Dial Log is still a complete app — your collection lives on your phone, works with no connection, and stays there unless you ask otherwise.
Six languages: English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian and Dutch.
Free.
