I'd stay away from TAG ... Not the most durable. The glass on my Monaco just fell off, realized it after the minute and second hands got bent. No warranty cover.

I'd go with Omega.. It has the highest resale value of the lot for good reason.

I've heard lots of stories about Tag and lack of reliability. I'm a fan of Omega myself.

I've only heard good things about Omega but so far I have yet to fall for any of their pieces. I quite like a few of the Planet Ocean series but they all look pretty ordinary to me. I would love for you guys to post pics of ur favourite Omegas for inspiration

I've got an Omega and it has been reliable 6 years counting, I would wait if I was you and save up for a Rolex Explorer 2.

Please read my post "Letter from Breitling" before you make your decision. BTW I love my Explorer II.

beautiful dial!

what are the prices for the pieces in question? prices that they can be HAD for, not online msrp

1. grand carrera calibre 36
2. grand carrera calibre 17 rs
3. omega speedmaster professional (+ the one 65 posted?)
4. breitling transocean

different materials, different movements, so i'm not sure they all can be compared against each other?

i've had my Tag (aquaracer automatic) for 6 years now, its my daily and i never got it serviced or any issues and it works perfectly.

i would go Tag Carrera with black face, orange dial and rubber strap.
