Best “Mini Collection” from your collection?

I have few sub collections, about 5 in each category ok or 6 😂 or 10…😜 but I don’t label them strong I just cuz i think they are equally strong 💪

-Seiko Porcelain/Enamel Dial Collection

-Micro Brand Collection

-Seiko Diver Collection

-Solar/Quartz Collection

and off course the G-Shock Collection 💪

Equally strong, no doubt! Hmm... your solar collection intrigues me 🧐

or also know as the Window Sill Collection…😜

Ohhh also I was stalking your Profile I see you have this…

Ohh tell me about it!! How’s does it wear ? Too big? i was considering adding a Jack mason gold watch to my micro collection it was either that or this…

I do exactly the same. To me, my watches not only need to make sense individually and be a coherent part of the whole collection but I also like to rearrange them into sub-collections that also make sense by themselves. With that approach, I can mentally have several collections.

This is how I collect. I put together three watch collections based on…some made up criteria that works at the time. Will post later. 

One fun mini collection I think of is my Team Casio:

I like to do mini-collections that include a pilot, a field, and a diver from a particular brand. For example, Bulova- Hack, Oceanographer, and A15; Islander-Rangemaster, Bayport, and Hemel Collaboration Pilot; Seiko-SNJ025 Arnie, Seiko 5 SRPG35, and Seiko 5 SPRH33; Citizen-Nighthawk, Prodiver, and Chandler; Hamilton-Khaki Pilot Flight Timer, Khaki Hand-Wind Field, and Khaki Navy (I am still needing to get this one. It is on my list for 2023).

I don't have a mini collection but I approve of your SD-1.

One of my favourite ways of killing time. 
Solar mini collection

Citizen Promaster gmt, Seiko Speedtimer, G-Steel GST-b400

Microbrand

Echo/Neutra Big Moon Field Watch, Clemence Watches Photic Diver, Borealis Sintra

Titanium 

Big Idea Design x RZE Titanium Field Watch Solar, Vilhelm Prism, Glock Watches Global

Swiss 

125th anniversary Certina DS80, Tissot PRC200 , Hamilton Titanium Khaki Automatic 

A one watch collection within my three watch collection 😜

The usual suspects sorted by size 😊

Six Swiss (which is really two collections, one of entry level Swiss watches and one of entry level luxury)

Enthusiast collection (note the Hamilton is playing double duty here. I’ve since replaced it with a Seiko ProSpex and created an enthusiast Japanese collection)

My mini collection is my “permanent” one. These 3 will always be with me since their sentimental value is way more than what they’re actually worth:

Omega Flightmaster (Circa early 70s), my father’s watch. 
 

Squale (limited run order for my alma mater)

Rado Ceramica (a recent gift from my father)

I do this all the time… my favorite right now is my land, sea and air collection.

Hammy Chrono

The Gilty 58

The OceanStar GMT

If I expanded this to include a simple everyday, I’d probably drop my SARB in the mix but odds over evens, always.

This set is epic. Although I’d change up the straps a bit, nato on explorer and rubber in the seiko. awesome set great choices 

Thank you! I have a rubber ready for the summer for the Seiko👍

First time post. Enjoying this discussion. Some nice mini collections here. These are my three. A diver, a daily/reference watch and a dress watch

I have three main cases, the traditional more well known names, military, mostly vintage, and the independent/micro brands which works well. Breaking down further gets too confusing.

Other than my collection of straps, I have a small collection of Bertucci and Casio. 

My mini Breitling collection

Great mini collections everyone!

I’ll add my mini maxi to the mix.

Fieldwalker’s Divers! (almost all my watches 🤪)

(the prospex LX rules in the dark)

Wow! Lovely spread of styles here

Super into it! How do you like that G-Shock?

That black and yellow piece is an eye-catcher! Nice collection you've got!

Can't go wrong there! Thanks for sharing

I'm a big fan of your zodiac! That's quite a lineup you've got there

It's certainly a rare one, they didn't make any more of these after their 1st run. I knew I had to get one before they were all gone, but the 26mm fixed lugs make it a little difficult to find straps (only one piece nato straps).

thanks! 👍

The zodiac hits heavy for what it is: a $1200 swiss diver.  It’s COSC, 200m, 20mm strap monster, is the ultimate summer watch, or when you need a bit of summer in the middle of winter ❄️ mine keeps better than +- 1 second a day 

Loved the full metal square from the first time I saw it online. Enjoy the multband 6 accuracy, still enjoy wearing resin g shocks though, especially in summer. I like the dial on your Jack mason watch
