Are there other brands that make nice Cushion Cases?

Wondering if I can get some recommendations/ideas for other watch companies besides Panerai that make nice cushion cased watches.

Like this VC in the middle.



I see some vintage ones out there from Rolex and Omege, but they are like 30mm. Can anyone recommend anything in the 40mm and up range besides Panerai?

Thanks,

....and I should add a price tag as well. Let's say $250,000 watches need not apply. Let's keep it near 10k or below.

Always been a big fan of the Hamilton Jazzmaster Cushion
Really really nice watch for the $525.00 asking price!

Love the VC Historique, btw the PP above, isn't that the new one with a vintage movement limited to eight watches or so?
