I have an Omega PO. Personally I think they are more butch than the equivalent Rolexes. Also more rare: as soon as someone at my firm can afford a higher end watch they're out buying a Rolex (everyone 'recognizes' the Rolex as expensive - so it's a 'I spent $$$ statement' - most of these guys don't know much about watches, they just saw Rolex in some ad or on the wrist of someone they know).

I'd also spend a bit more & consider a PAM, Sinn (dive), Anonimo or U-boat. Something different. And then only a horologie geek tends to notice these.
