Do Rolex watches keep good time?

I'm not extreemly familiar with Breitling, but what I do know is not that impressive to me. They sell at a very high price point and unless something has changed in the last few years they only manufacture themselves a very few movements in their watches and buy the rest. So basically your buying a $1000 times X watch that might have the same movement as say a few hundred dollar Tissot. I do not know much about the movements they do make, but in the watch innovation world its not spectacular.
Rolex is far superb at manufacturing and hand assembling every moment in addition to exterior durability and quality not to mention the long lasting resale value and demand. Omega is also incredibley inovatiove and has many long lasting flagship watches in its collection like the Seamaster and manufactures most (if not all of their automatic movements.)
Outside of that you get into the very very high end and limited timepieces that are just incredible but not very accessible. For me anyway.
Gosh i didnt realize i was such a watch nerd untill i joined this forum LOL
I Love Zenith but I can no way afford one. If I could I'd get a big chunky Chronograph with a Diamond Bezel and a leather strap and wear it on my 6" wrist!! :D

Considering how heavily Zenith is discounted on the regular (65-80% off MSRP) you might just be able to snag one. :graucho:

I had emailed Breitling to ask them if their two tone watches are solid gold or rolled gold in writing and I still have yet to receive anal answer from them. Verbally Breitling customer service rep said that it was solid gold but on the internet someone said that it was rolled gold. So I'm just going to leave Breitling alone since they can't answer this question in writing. Plus Breitling using only rose gold on their watched. But Rolex still uses yellow gold on their watches which looks way better on me by the way. I love the two tone DJ 36mm champagne dial with Roman numerals.
