Omega? Breitling? Rolex?

Hello,

In one year I will be comissioned an Ensign in the US Navy. I am looking to purchase a watch to wear for the duration of my career. I hope to work in the submarine community and intend to earn my combat divers qualification. I want a rugged but asthetically pleasing watch, that will keep up with me. While price is of concern, I am making an investment. Would you recommend the submariner/sea dweller, the seamaster professional, or the super ocean professional? Why? I am inherently a tech enthusiast. Maybe thats why Im so attracted to these engineering marvels? I want quality. What brand should I go with?

Thanks so much,

Luke
