Breitling V Rolex?

Hi. Just thought I would throw my two cents worth into this interesting conversation.
Like someone else mentioned earlier, IMO, Rolex makes a better investment watch. I purchased a Submariner back in 1987 which then had a list price of $1800. I sold it several years later without the box/papers and basically got my money back. Last year, before purchasing my seadweller, a local dealer was sellling the same model and approximately the same year for $4500. As I understand it, Rolex deliberately under produce their watches and dislike offering discounts. A rolex owner once remarked that you essentially own your rolex for free because if/when you sell it, you can get all your money back as was in my case.
That being said, Breitling has some very attractive watches that are also attractively priced, and I'm not skilled enough to say whether the quality of a rolex alone would justify the higher price.
I'm considering buying another watch but can't decide between Omega, Breitling, or Doxa. Decisions, decisions.
