Watch collecting patterns

In my collecting I have discovered a bunch of patterns:

1. I can't get myself to buy a watch with a date magnifier, no matter what its merits.

2. I can't get myself to buy a watch with a moonphase indicator, no matter what its merits.

3. I can't get myself to buy a watch which is gemset, not even if it's a cabochon in a crown.

4. I have once owned a watch with an aluminum bezel insert, but that ended up one of the reasons I ended up selling it. Now that's a dealbreaker too.

5. I'll take horrible ineffective lume,

6. I'll take low water resistance or questionable claims of good water resistance (100m with now screwdown caseback/crown)  on watches I'm not going to swim in anyway.

7. My daily wear watches need to have a date window. Additionally a timer such as a chronograph or a turning bezel are appreciated. These are the functions which I use the most.

8. I like my watches being under 11mm thick, but if a tubbier watch gets me a cool complication or water resistance I'll actually take advantage of I'll look the other way.

9. Any watch I own with strong vintage-inspired overtones (such as having beige lume) or has no more complications than a date and a GMT or chronograph, has to be 39mm Ø or under.

10. Any watch I own which is very modern (such as being made of ceramic or titanium) or has multiple complications may be 43mm Ø or under.

11. I like my dials black, white, silver or blue. If there's white metal or matte white or beige hour markers and hands I prefer a black or dark blue dial for contrast and legibility.

12. Coloured gold probably isn't for me because of the price but also because it clashes with my white metal jewelry, beltbuckles etc. It's not a dealbreaker because I do like the look of it, but it's highly unlikely I'll ever own a coloured gold watch.

13. I have two objectives in collecting:  I try ticking boxes in a way which is both idealist and pragmatist in outlook. I wanted the best chronograph, the best diver, the best integrated bracelet hyphen-named integrated bracelet sportswatch, the best tiny gold dress watch, the best field watch etc. The best meaning meeting my demands while supplying great bang for buck at the time of buying. Watches I bought for such reasons are the Cartier Ceinture, the Rolex 116600 Sea-Dweller, the Zenith Chronomaster Original 1969 El Primero, the JLC Reverso Gran'Sport and the Hamilton Murph. From this it follows that I prefer to not own two watches that do the exact same thing.The other objective I buying watches to play a particular role in my life. For example I wanted the Tudor Pelagos FXD for exercise and actually timing stuff in minutes up to an hour (got a lot of mileage out of it), the Tudor Black Bay Pro to do some globe trotting (hasn't happened yet), the Tudor Black Bay Ceramic for going to dodgy dive bars to wear a nice watch while not attracting robbers due to it being matte black and plastic'y looking from a few metres off and having almost no clearly visible  branding (got a lot of mileage out of it) and I wanted the Tissot PRX for telling me the time and the date and slipping under my sleeve while looking moderately dressy when I go to university.

14. I tend to be turned off by non-Swiss watches.

15. I tend to be turned off by watch brands which did not yet exist at the time when the quartz crisis made the mechanical watch redundant for time keeping purposes.

16. I tend to be turned off by zombie brands. In my view a watch brand that went out of business and then was defunct for years ought to stay out of business.

Anyone else has these type of buying/collecting patterns? If so: What are they?
