For me, diversity in price.
I love my seiko as much as my nautilus (sometimes more, lol).

Wristscan- 28th April : Diversity
Are you a one-theme addict or do you like diversity? Is it just one manufacturer or tempted across many different makes. Feel free to post anything that reflects your collecting....be it a single variant or a Pandora's Box....
But, but, but... This is a duo of vintage JLC Polaris 65 and TT Polaris 65!
Mathematically, only 65 people can do that, as your TT Polaris 65 is in steel. But finding a Jaeger Lecoultre Polaris 65, a vintage, I mean, is as challenging as finding its steel sibling. Impressive. Just in time for tomorrow's black Friday on the JLC fo...
Superb pair, my friend!
I wish I could show you the same... Two of the Polaris versions I still miss.... Best Blomman
If I see the number of GPs in that pile, that I already showed my single brand diversity ;
Great memories! I will find another angle on diversity...
This is a picture which sums the spirit of the forum quite well.
Diversity in watches, in budget, in moderns and vintages, in size, in materials, in movements, in notoriety.... In one word, in all. A gentleman's collection, in sum. What a shot. Much better than mine. Well done, Joe. All the best, Nicolas
Warming my wrist for tomorrow...
Almost as I found it 7 years ago.... Since then some improvements I will show tomorrow. Best, Nicolas ...

Thanks Art
The watches and the video had me "knocking" and rocking your choices--it was a nice pause in an otherwise shitty day. This is a great place. Best, Tim
Thx, Art !.. Liked the video and your tic-tac choices !.. Great pics, as well, needless to say.. :))
My humble favs your Omega & the Tonneau shaped Big Date GO !.. - Sooo cool ! Best, hs
As the T-shirt say: Same, same...
Same.... Same... But... Different... Or not! HAGWE Blomman ...
...Take me home.... Country road... West Virginia!
Thank you for this one, dear Art! Best Blomman
Variety to dream about, Blomman!
Your TTP \'65 with the purple nato is just crazy cool! Have a great weekend, Alex
Crazy fun! :)
Best is that most people think it is a perfume watch when they see it on a purple strap! Best, my friend Blomman
Thank you, Ken!
Working many different angles at the same time makes you end up like this... Best Blomman
Aahhh.. Torquemade is on the road again !.. Really love your lineups !.. ;))
Guess I\'d go for the GP- quintet + Omegas, if that is not asking to much ! If only one allowed, my dav would be the Seamaster 300, Lollipop ! .. Well, and then 1 or 2 Deep Divers.. So you see, nce opening Pandora\'s box, my modest truck will be waiting !...
Pandora's box is....
...in Paris! Ah, yes the lollipop is a really cool watch! Best, my friend Blomman
Yes indeed.. Everyone meets his own part of Pandora's box !..
Your Lollipops are signature details of yourself !.. Best, hs
Theme and diversity
Hi I think my shot shows both my addiction to a particular theme and also the diversity of what I have It might also suggest I'm a bit of a lose cannon too! There are others that might suggest I'm more organised and others where you just go off topic HAGW...
Love the last one very much :-))
But the first photo shows you have a good very well diversified taste and collection.
I can't remember now what my theme is with watches... ;)
But this was on my wrist tonight and as it is almost summer, a chilled glass of Zenith to go with it! Cheers! Andrew ...
Orange . . .
. . . and vodka? Some guys know how to start the day off right ;-) . . .
In case you've truly forgotten, Andrew . . .
. . . here's a reminder of the common thread . . . . . . that ties your collection together. ...
Not quite, Nicolas - the common thread
. . . thread in Andrew's collection is the color orange.
Diversity in 40mm+ vintage GPs
Here is my diversity shot on how different 5 vintage GP with a larger case of 40mm+ can look like. HAGWE! CC ...
Hej CC !.. That's a nice quintet of cool GPs.. Different & divers also.. :))
Has really been a great pleasure to see & handle some of them In the real very recently. Best & HAGWE, hs
Cannot be more diverse than these Two !.. Nice choices, fernando !.. :))
This Reverso is the epitome of coolness & purity.. And the WT Chrono a versatile piece. Enjoy your Duo & wear them in the Best of your health ! Cheers, hs
For me, diversity in price.
I love my seiko as much as my nautilus (sometimes more, lol). ...
I'm trying to focus on ...
In alphabetical order ... IWC: (Top Gun) JLC: (Amvox 1) Omega: (Omega Trésor Master) From time to time, I deviate from my norm (that is made to be broken), and I have some (few) others like Piaget, Heuer, Longines, Seiko, Sinn and Bremont. A wonderful we...

What color is the lange with brown shoes? That black Lange looks so much better than most..
and I dont even like black dials. Wrong side of the bed
Diversity is what I aim for
Still looking for more variety. The Tuna addition was the latest spice to my rather classical, conservative pieces. ...
That strap is gone
That\'s a makeshift cheapo. A good dealer friend has some beads of rice bracelet to spare, so he fitted it to my Connie. ...
Beautiful!
You did the same thing that my dad did with grandpa\'s Connie. They\'re just candy for the wrist and a hug to the heart. Have a great weekend, Alex ...
Iconic companion.. Faitmhful & superb class of its own.. Not more, no less ! :))
Cheers, great remaining Sunday & Best, hs
Well, let me see.. Just trying to chip-in some groupings for diversity.. :))

H.....your collection is superbly diverse.....
......even within one manufacture it is so. Across the board, a smorgasbord!!
Friends, for me diversity....
means what I can do with my Sinn on the wrist: I can wear it to the city park. I can go undercover I can smell the flowers Finally I can go for a stroll by the Thames river. if that is not diversity then what is? Best Regards. Edward ...
ha ha ha....
my idea of diversity in watches is to visit different places wearing the same watch Best Edward
I feel obligated to further explain my idea....
you can; and most of us do, admire our dials, hands, bezels, entire watches sitting on a "lazy boy" chair at home. You can also contemplate the same in different settings/environments light conditions etc. Then all you need is one watch. Your watch is you...
Thank you Ken for good words....
in a situation when I feel I dig myself into a hole Best Regards Edward
I think I am not too diverse :p
Except in dial colors? :p Ok I have some watches which are quite different too :p And different colored metals So maybe my collection is quite diverse after all When it comes to chronographs with German silver plates, again I become less diverse again . C...
Thanks Nico! And I love to add some more diversity
Like yours with vintage watches too
Not too divers ?.. Enough versatility & variation there !.. Some extraordinary pieces there.. :))
Have to say, I simply love both your MBF Legacy Machine, (always a Wow !), as also the ALS Datograph Flyback ! Finally, the dial shot(s) is a splendid Trio ! Chronos with German silver plates are superb contenders !! Cheers & Best, hs
Thank you HS
You are right. The only diver I have is the Tudor black Bay black which I recently got
Wonderful thread Joe, and awesome timepieces we can view from you and our friends...
... I arrived to watch collecting around seven or eight years ago with a long experience in collecting other very different objects and the concept that a true collector should specialize in some theme, brand or aspect of the object of his desire. So I st...
Stupendous.....
......Abel, I am left without words on this. From a focus to a theme.....style!
Thank you so much Joe! And I need to say again that I owe the discovery of this...
... wonderful World and big enjoyiment to so nice people like you and many other friends here at PuristS! Thanks so much with all my heart for sharing friendship knowledge and passion with such generosity!! Have a nice week end Joe and friends!!
Wow, Abel !.. That I call a full carddeck of Aces !.. As well your Rollies, as your conundrum through some very nice other pieces are a pleasure to look at !
You have successfuly been " flooding" this thread, but what nice quality pieces ! Continue to wear them in the Best of your health ! Cheers with a great Sunday remainder & my Best, hs
Thank you my friend Hs!! Appreciate your ...
... Kind comments and good wishes! Best cordial regards Abel
I'm trying to have and get a more diverse collection.
Why? It\'s more fun that way because you will have way more styles to choose from! Along my short collecting route I\'ve told myself some time ago that I would only own 1 watch from a brand. That sadly failed. But I will try to get back on track a bot mor...
Thank you Nico!
Coming from you I consider that compliment. Still no JLC though..... :-0
Again?
It\'s just a shame that I don\'t like the way a Reverso looks on my wrist. Otherwise it would have been a done deal long time ago. ...
I understand. you are not alone in this case.
The TT DSA is certainly a good watch. The Duometre, too. Best, Nicolas
The TT DSA-EU is an absolutely cool timepiece, but with a great versatility !.. :))
From boardroom, to evening dinner, from leisure to a more festive occasion.. Lots of winning charm & sportive elegance !.. ) Best, hs
I can't help but...

Tough to beat . . .
. . . when it comes to appearance, I'll give you that, Ken. There was a time when a Minerva was under consideration for my collection. Art ...
Well Robin, that indeed s a cool & charming timepiece !.. Nicely fits your wrist.. :))
Also has a low key appeal, but with a fresh twist for the connoisseur !.. Have a great Sunday ! Cheers & Best, hs
