For me divers make the best travel anywhere watch. One moment you can be in the sea and the next in a hot tub. The sealing of the case and the overall construction is just more durable. I prefer dress watches when involved in leisure activities, but I like small watches and complications that are not available in any other designs.

I only have one diver. (nivrel) It is very plain and well crafted. I generally prefer very simple clean styles. Understated elegance and all that. Definitely no chronos (unless you mean chronometer) for me. As for complications, Day/Date, power reserve, and GMT are about it. And then not all on the same watch. Sub-seconds are OK too. Regulators too. And I couldn't turn down a great value on a turbillion. But I like to keep the dial uncluttered. Guilloche is nice, though. OK I admit it... ANYTHING THAT TICKS.

I have several different types of watches, but right now my taste leans toward divers. I like the style and chunkiness.:D

Mostly divers for me too. I'll have the occasional non-diver if it's cool..

I am pretty much all over the place but taking a quick look at the collection shows a definite predilection for divers. Like Avery said, they are tough, sealed and should take a good amount of daily use no matter how rough it might be...
