While not all technically "dive" watches, they are all at least 200m and have screw down crowns. Not pictured is the golden solar Tuna inbound from RobImage

Full state of my watches and watch box. Divers to the left and pilots/ sport in the middle and vintage or cheapies to the right. Box still under construction but pleased with it so far. Should be able to hold another 20 or so when top trays are complete. Needs foam cushions and hardware.
Oh, and I have 2 more incoming watches this month ImageImage

I like keeping 8, but currently at 12 (without considering the G-shocks those doesn’t count :lol). I have too many beaters, but for what I could sell them, I just prefer to keep them around.

Thanks. I have posted pics before, but Heuer didn't make many - precise numbers are not know - somewhere between 20 & 100.

I really don’t have a lot of divers anymore.
Same here. Although I own a few Panerais and the brand started as a dive watch company, rightly or wrongly I don't really consider them dive watches today. Given that I think the P0 2500 is the only watch in my collection that truly fits into the 'dive watch' category.

Interesting. More of a pilot-style focus then?

A bit of a mish-mash. Three Panerais (PAM 000, PAM 372, PAM 190), the PO, an IWC Mark XV, two JLCs (Master Chronograph and Master Memovox), a Speedmaster Professional, a GO Senator Observer, an AP 15400 and a Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical. Aside from the Khaki Field, my collection hasn't changed in a couple of years.

Great stuff
Don’t sell any of the five digit Rolex
They are the best in my opinion
I sold a 16600 and I still regret it
I know, it’s a good point and I don’t think I’ll end up doing it. I may just store it away in a safe deposit box for a bit.

Logan - what’s your opinion on the Khaki?

Nick, some truly amazing watches.

Pat, holy shit, insane collection w/many grails.

Here's my regulars (not pictured the Oris Maldives I'm wearing today, and 6 micros I wear "occasionally").

Great collection, you’re one five digit sub and a GS away from perfection :)
I had a five digit sub (wore it for 27 years straight), and sold it to get the SD4K 116600. If I had know what Rolex prices would do, I never would have sold it :banghead:

I still like dive watches, but between the Speedy, Sinn 556 and Khaki field vintage, I've started appreciating non dive bezel watches.

Probably about 80% dive watches for me. Hope to sell a few to finish funding a SD4K. Problem is most of the ones that I want to sell, aren’t even worth selling. Image
