Frequently Asked Questions

Can I scrape a specific filter combination, like all stainless steel Daytonas under $25,000? Yes! Apply your filters on the bobswatches.com website, copy the resulting URL (the filters are encoded in the URL), and paste it as a Start URL.

How many listings can it scrape? There is no hard limit. The actor will automatically paginate through all result pages. Bob's Watches currently lists several hundred Rolex watches, which can all be scraped in a single run.
