What is everyone's opinion on having duplicates/close variations of the same model in your collection? Would you have duplicate models just in a different colour perhaps? Or would it have to have a different complication etc. to warrant a place? And is having two pepsi bezel models excessive 🤣 for the record, the picture above is not my collection, but I'm currently trying to figure out if I should have two NY004 Citizen Promaster models in my collection.

I think its OK Richard, I have two Casio EFV100's and I think Andy @Bayl61 has all the Duros. The thing is these are fairly cheap-ish watches, if I liked something more expensive I would think twice. Having said that thinking about another Oceanus in a different colour and that is £300 !
Your collection your rules! Clearly you’ve found a watch you like so why not explore that model family more? You can always sell them down the line if you decide to refine.

Yeah I mean, the Promaster is my favourite watch, so at least I'm mining a rich area of my collection 😎
If you like it then buy it even in multiples……👍🏻
Sure why not. As long as you like them. I have two Kamasus, two GShocks 5600 series, and two Boderry Voyagers and I enjoy wearing them all. I think we should all folllow or ignore our own rules.
I see no problems here 😊
I don't really see an issue with that 😀
However in my case, whenever two versions of the same watch have co-existed at the same time, there has been some thinking about which one to keep. Of the 4 watches above I still have only one.
Perfectly ok…oh sorry. I thought you were asking about boxer shorts. But yes, still ok.
I have multiple speedmasters. I know people with watch boxes filled with speedmasters. There is no rule to collecting that says how you have to collect. Follow your heart and what makes you smile
I dont see the point, I chose the version/color I like the most and live with it.
Why would anyone do that?

I’ve 5 Willard’s, 3 SBBN tunas, 4 monsters, and goodness knows how many G-lide G shocks. Having typed all of that, I readily acknowledge I have a problem 😂😂
Collecting several versions (or the same version) of the same watch is an approach to collecting. I prefer to have a variety of watches I like so it always feel new when I put on a different watch.

Yeah, your collection your rules. I personally wouldn’t have two watches from the same model/family. But I do have several watches that look very similar. So in reality it’s not really that different.
As cliche as it sounds, I don’t think there is any right answer to what you should have in your collection. Other than it’s your collection, get what you like. Haha.
My Seiko V743-9020's. Its like they are brothers and will never be separated 🙂🙂
Nice!!!
I keep contemplating buying another Casio Duro so, I get it.
I think I may be getting a Citizen Promaster Automatic next though 😉.
I am guilty of multiples of the same watch, and I'm very happy about it! https://www.watchcrunch.com/Watchgeekery/posts/the-dilemma-of-several-watches-of-the-same-model-306365
I have nothing insightful to add about collectiing but that photo has me wanting a NY004 Citizen. Their own product photography doesn't do those watches justice
Guilty as charged.
Aaaa yes, better known as the"But you have that one"paradox!! Usually found coming from the blowhole of a significant other or insignificant other. The best solution the resolve the paradox is as simple as color. "No bitch, I DONT have same watch!! One's black and one's Pepsi!!!
Totally ok with it. As long as theyre not exactly the same, theyre different

I leave out the bitch part but the rest of it’s pretty accurate.
Not a crime but not my practice when buying ⌚.
I prefer each ⌚ to have a distinct attribute lacking in the others.
Your money do it if you love the watches by multiple different varieties 👍👍
I think its great to complete a collection or set. I call my mini gathering the fantastic four, All unworn and mine for the keeping. Duane.....Black Diamond, WA. 98020
I'm okay with it. I have 2 King samurai. One black dial and the other the white dial. Love both.
What? No, never! I mean, seriously, who does that 🤣😬
