Thanks.
For what it's worth, here's what Gene Stone writes in The Watch (which I highly recommend as a book).
  1. Rolex 3135
  2. Audemars Piguet 3120
  3. Jaeger-LeCoultre 975
  4. ETA 2892
  5. Omega 2500
  6. Girard-Perregaux 3300
  7. Piguet 1150
  8. Glashutte Original 95
The ordering is his, but I don't see a source here (the list is on page 241).
