          That's just one of the SKX models, right?  You should have no problems finding one, Finn.  Check eBay for new ones, WatchRecon for used and modified ones.  I think you can find one around $150-175 pretty easily.

            Go for the 007J Rafa. It's a little more expensive, but the movement is made in Japan. Check out the EDC thread for a pic of mine.

                          GO is a hugely underappreciated brand - But most importantly well done on that particular piece!

                              Zenith El Primero Lightweight. Limited to just 100 pieces worldwide, and in the UK it's on sale for £13,700 (about $22,000) from the emporium of good taste that is Harrods.

                              I'm in two minds about it. On the one hand it's a bit of a techno-bling overload, though I do have a soft spot for Urwerk's creations and the Jaeger LeCoultre Extreme Lab. On the other, I really dig the engineering that's gone into it. Much of the movement is made from titanium.

                              In any case, Zenith are doing some really interesting things right now. The original Pilot Type 20 appeals, but that's largely because it's a stupidly oversized wristwatch with an observatory chronometer movement. And the El Primero lightweight is significantly cheaper than (say) the IWC Ingenieur Carbon.

                                          I was in London today, and dropped by the Bremont boutique. Since Mclaincausey likes the Supermarine, I grabbed a few shots for him.



                                          The watch is a bit bigger than my Avenger Seawolf, which you can see in the top photo. However it's a similar height top to bottom, and in thickness. It's also a bit heavier, as it's a steel watch, whereas mine is one of the discontinued titanium models.

                                          I don't have any problems with the Breitling on a day-to-day basis, but it does interfere with shirt cuffs a bit, and I think that the Bremont would be as equally wearable. In fact it might be easier as the quarter hour indicators can sometimes catch.

                                          I like the bi-colour crown, and also its position, which means it's tucked away. You can't see it on my photos, but the case is also two-tone. Bremont have their own aesthetic, which I like. The finish is good, certainly on a par with the Breitling, though mine is probably the most tool-like model in recent years.

                                          Plus it's chronometer rated, so should be accurate, shock proof, anti-magnetic (not sure of the rating), and reasonably waterproof. Retail price is £3,600, which is reasonable.

                                          Downsides? There's a bit of snobbishness from the haute horologie crowd. In part this is because it uses an off-the-shelf movement (an ETA, but I've professed my love for Tracteurs before), and also a lack of history for the brand. They don't hold their value too well, so it might be worth keeping an eye on the secondary market.
