Yes the fit and finish on the high end cannot be priced.
The ETA movement is very accurate and can be got in less expensive watches for a tightwad like me.
To be sure, when we hit the lotto it’s Rolex and omega time! Smile

Pick up an older one Mike. If you dont mind plastic crystals, non quick set dates, and non fluted (solid) bezels you can get one pretty reasonable. I own a 1974 Datejust model still a nice watch

I always wanted an old GMT I like the green or brown ones just never pursued it.

I got my Datejust from old man DeMesy himself at a show some 15 odd years ago
