Yes, all very good calibres BUT, I own/have owned Rolex GMT master, Rolex oyster day date, Rolex explorer (series 1), Cartier tank francaise, Rose gold Rotary, various omegas, Longines, tag heuers and Seikos. My newest watch is a Nomos Glashutte "club" and, as a timekeeper it beats them all!!
My Rolex's are "best" but have NEVER been better than 10/15 seconds lost per day (even after being re-adjusted by Rolex). My Nomos Club
is losing 5 seconds a day and has retained that accuracy for several weeks now.
My wife has a Nomos "Tetra" which uses the same Nomos alpha movement and, that too keeps almost perfect time according to TIMEGMT!!!
