Cons:
Regional pricing supplement
**NO ZIPS FOR THE HIGHEST RESOLUTION PHOTOS**
May be too softcore and arty for some although not a con for me.
Most videos quite short at around 3-4 minutes
A few of the oldest videos don’t have the hd option
Lacking any real model bios, only basic info provided like year of birth, height, measurements and country.
The entire model directory displays on 1 page so could take time to load if your connection is not the fastest.
No search or sort tools apart from the basic “photos, videos and models” categories
Too many photo sets/videos start out with the model nude or wearing very little.
A little too much photo shopping at times
A few non exclusive photo sets I recognised from other sites.
Bottom Line:
This site features a fine collection of 244 models in professional style glamour/nude art style photo and video content. W4B is based in Prague and as such you’ll find around 95% of the models come from the Czech Republic and other Eastern European countries. I found many of my favourites here including the likes of Ariel. Lola, Nella, Monika Vesela and Marketa Belonoha. Ashley Bulgari also has a fine collection here with 28 photo sets and 4 videos Of the few non euro babes here a cute Latina named Ruth Medina from Venezuela caught my eye as did a gorgeous black model named Jessica although sadly she only had 2 photo sets totalling less than 100 photos.
The 1025 photo sets are basically split into 2 categories, “Erotic photos” and “castings”. I found the casting shoots a little dull as they were mostly just a studio shoot with a plain white backdrop. However the Erotic photo sets had a good mix of indoor and outdoor locations as well as a few daring outdoor public shoots. The photo shoot of Becca on the Charles Bridge in Prague certainly seemed to attract a lot of attention from the passing tourists. At times I found myself wishing the models would start out the shoots wearing a little more clothing to make it more interesting and sexy and sometimes they go a little too overboard with the photo shopped special effects for my taste. Many of the photo sets come with a corresponding backstage video which can be streamed or downloaded. The biggest con for photo collectors might be the lack of a zip download for the highest resolution pictures. It’s not a big deal for me as I prefer the mid size option to save on hd space. The site admin replied to a comment in the forum stating the high res zips were removed due to piracy so they must have been available in the past as TBP review of March 2010 stated that zips are offered in all sizes.
I’m mainly here for the photo collection so I’m not sure if the videos here would totally satisfy video fans. In addition to the backstage videos there’s a collection of 161 what they call “Sensual Videos”. The videos are usually quite short at 3 to 4 minutes and quite tame really usually involving the model just posing and showing off her body. There are some that contain some masturbation and toy use but I would say those are in the small minority. All the videos I’ve watched so far (around 60) contain music so you rarely get to hear the model make any sounds. With the 1280x720 vids playing at 5000k and the 1024x576 playing at 3-4000k I found the difference in quality between the high and low options barely noticeable so ended up downloading the smaller files.
Extra features on the site include magazine articles, wallpapers, e-cards, jokes and you also get access to some free live public cam shows which kept me amused from time to time. Overall probably a site more suited to photo than video fans with a stunning collection of top name models but personally I slightly prefer the more natural look of the photos at MPL Studios and Digital Desire so as a result find myself scoring W4B a point or two lower than those sites at 86.

I tried to sign up this AM and only the $29.95 option is presently listed for a 1 month recurring option. That stinks because this looked like a pretty good deal. Oh well.
This is an awesome site with great picture quality and the best bonus sites ever. The only thing wrong with this site, is that you can't download a zip of the largest resolution. They also keep updating, which the model I love on there has six more sets since I left, I guess I'll have to sign up again.
Here is a lesson:
We keep looking for good sites - but sometimes we forget our past joins - and by mistake I joined Watch4beauty again - stupid me...(my own fault, by all means)
Reason: The site is selling it self well, too well - a WOW-preview and foremost GREAT models - but the site has turned more weird than ever... remember those pretty strange "hard colors" at Pier999 - Watch4beauty is getting worse - much worse..
And as a vids fan it's down right BAD.....we've had discussions about some site a bit to much art - for vids this site is now worse than some art exhibition with some snobs commenting lines and colors...and how much this looks like Picasso.......jeez.
This is not even softcore - If I'd want material like this, I could go to an art museum....sad with the potential/models...
Browsing through my wish list book marks today i noticed an Easter Special offer of $19.95 here instead of the usual $29.95 which is still availabe. Unfortunately the regional pricing makes it around $23 here in the UK and i guess Europeans would be affected in a similar way but still a good discount as the regular price comes to $35 for me with regional pricing. I'm almost tempted to take advantage of the discount despite my aversion to the regional pricing scam.
Update: The offer has ended now, it's back to the regular price.
Some of us talk about sites going downhill - like a snowball headin' for hell......
Really liked this site - ONCE!
Now I joined again - should have not - no reviews since 2009.
And what do we get:
very nice pix and very clear vids - and that's it.
BUT the way they make those vids lately:
One horrible example is cute Ferrara Gomez/Jessica Koks - here "Viviene" in the vid "Bed Pussy":
Max 2 minutes with cute Jessica on a bed - then the entire rest of the video ONLY totally close-up of pussy - fingering/dildo - IT COULD BE ANYBODY...
And Jessica is certainly not the only one with this poor way of filming!
This is it for me concerning Watch4Beauty...a bummer...
Bottom line:
I'm fed up with spending money on sites I used ot like - and naively thought is still good.
Here's a unique offer - W4B is now offering a deal where you can buy a subscription and get another subscription for a friend free.
There's a tag in the upper right hand corner that says "W4B Special Offer" to take advantage of this.
I haven't looked to see if your friend's sub recurs or is only for the first period that you pay for, but this is a new one to me for pay internet sites, though Playboy has sent out offers like this by mail around the holidays for years.
I had planned on joining Watch 4 Beauty next but on hitting the CCBill sign up page i discovered that due to regional pricing they wanted to charge me the equivalent of $35 for the priviledge so i wrote to their support address to let them know my displeasure and that they'd lost potential custom because i'm not willing to pay more for simply living outside the US. This is their reply:
Hello, price on our site is displayed without currency. Depends on country, price is 29.95 USD or 29.95 EUR. I am very sorry about that but we have respect some uncomfortable rules in European Union. All the best, JiriW4B Adminwww.watch4beauty.com
Uncomfortable European union rules....WTF???
Their arguement doesn't really stand up anyway because what i'm charged in pounds does not come to 29.95 in dollars or euros so its definately misleading.
Watch4beauty offers a full free gallery to look at. Not just one sample pic per gallery. Anyone with a flat screen moniter will love this site. The photography is great. I've been a member of this site before and I have backgrounded so many photos. The Glam- the vivid colors- and overall art appeal is stunning. Watch4beauty is a glam site. If you have a flatscreen monitor and background the photos. It takes erotic photography and mixes it with art- just extreme colors, bright reds and yellows; models painted with paint; stunning beachside photo shoots. Also some of the best- interesting and dazzling, thoughtful shooting locations that I've seen.
Big, blurry and granulated pictures are not the reason why I pay to join a site either.
Most of the sets are super soft-core and are not erotic or sexual, but try to be in their themes and titles.
The choppy/bouncy fast-paced video editing is probably the worst thing about the site. About the only thing I desired after watching them was a Dramamine pill and a motion-sickness bag.
Like the Hegre-Art site, this one seems to be more focused on travel locations, clothes, props, shadows, etc. rather than on the clear, pure sexual energy/beauty of the model herself.
About the only good thing I have to say is that they pick the best and hottest models from all the other sites. But as I said, in the end, they way in which they're shot leaves a lot to be desired, and is more of a let down than a turn on.
