Another Idea!
Think about it this way. If you want quality, the watch should be made entirely by one company, not have the parts manufactured in one part of the world, then assembled somewhere else, and this same company should be a watch company, ONLY! I am sure Rolex is not the only watch company to do this. Look at the list of watch brands on this site. Most of us on this site, love our Rolexes, not just for its classic looks, but what drives the machine on the inside, the watch movement! You saw that first hand at your jewelers, when you peeked into those other mechanical watches. It is easy to suggest this Rolex or that Patek, or maybe a Piaget. But it is your wrist, so you have to determine your style, but make sure it has the machine to back up the style. My opinion, a Newman Cosmograph with a black alligator band would look smashing on your wrist.
