need a good external skimmer

Alright I need a recomendation for a real kick A@# external skimmer. It will be on my 120 which I would like to be able to keep moderately stocked and at the same time not be completely screwed if I cant do a water change for a month or two. Im willing to spend the extra dollar to get something good however Id rather not. So any advice is appreciated.

EuroReef makes some of the best skimmers. I would have got one if I could afford it! I went with a value skimmer, the ReefOctopus.
