Frequently Asked Questions

See our FAQ for more answers.

Can I download sample datasets for the .watch zone?

Yes. Download a sample .watch domain list or a sample .watch dataset.

What is a basic domain list, and how does it differ from a detailed dataset?

Both cover the same 26,717 registered domain names in the .watch zone. A basic list is one domain name per line in a gzip CSV. A detailed dataset adds DNS servers, server IP, hostname, emails, phone numbers, and more. See the dataset format details.

What are active and new domains?

Datasets for .watch are updated daily. Active domains are all currently registered names in the zone. New domains are names added in the last 24 hours.

Can I download only newly registered .watch domains?

Yes. The New domains list contains only the .watch domains registered in the last 24 hours and is rebuilt every day. To download it manually, sign in and click the number in the New domains column of the download table on this page (the Download button next to it gets the full list of active domains). Through the API, call /api2/?method=download&zone_tld=watch&dataset_type=list&filter_type=new&token=YOUR_API_TOKEN (dataset_type=dataset for the detailed dataset); see the API documentation.

What format and size is the file?

Every .watch domain list and dataset is a CSV file compressed with gzip (.csv.gz): the basic list has one domain name per line, the detailed dataset has one row per domain with the columns described in the dataset format details. Compressed, the current .watch basic list is about 119 KB and the detailed dataset about 354 KB. Any archiver opens gzip files, for example the free 7-Zip on Windows, and the API can also serve the files uncompressed (format=plain).

How do I automate daily downloads?

Schedule automatic downloads through the API. See the API documentation for authentication and endpoints.

Are emails and phone numbers available for every domain?

No. We collect contact details from public websites when available. Many domains have no published email or phone, and we do not guarantee these fields on every row. Do not use the data for unsolicited bulk outreach.

The .watch generic top-level domain (gTLD) was introduced on June 23, 2014, as part of ICANN's new gTLD initiative. Donuts (Dog Beach, LLC) took over as the registry operator of this domain after the right of its management was transferred to the DNS Root Zone.
Websites that work for watches or similar themes can use the exclusive top-level domain (TLD) named .watch.

Manufacturers of watches, watch collectors, fashion influencers, and surveillance firms fall under the same category who use this domain.

Despite looking exclusive to the watchmaking sector, anyone can register a .watch domain because it is not restricted to anyone. Because the word ""watch"" is so adaptable, it has shown to be popular not just with watch dealers or manufacturers but also with websites that aim to attract visitors by providing the newest video content, internet streaming, security services, and trend-making companies. As a result, the .watch domain extension turns into the ideal internet platform for anybody in the world.
