While I hold Rolex to be the one and true wristwatch, I do own an SKX009k2. You really can't beat it.

I do have to agree about the price though. Someone once said the Submariner is the best $2000 watch made and while that was a long time ago, it holds true. You do pay a premium for the rolexness of it all. I've owned probably 4 Subs over the years so I'm not complaining at all, it's just an observation. Omega does an in-house and quite innovative movement in their divers for quite a bit less than the Sub. It's all relative. Just glad I can enjoy these great watches.
