My Demeyere Proline 5-Star 11" Frying Pan. It's a beast and cleans oh so easily. BIFL.

This right here. Zwilling purchased Demeyere, a high-end Belgian manufacturer. Actual Demeyere (manufactured in Belgium) is far better than All-Clad in every possible way, but since it is a high-end manufacturer, its prices are very high (€202 for a 280 mm frying pan).
However, Demeyere also manufactures some other lines under the Zwilling brand, for example the Sensation line. I just checked the prices, though and it's odd that the Sensation is cheaper in America than Germany ($80-100 USD vs €150), so I don't know if that is a viable option for you.
Matfer bourgeat and de Buyer are French brands. They both make absurdly expensive copper (€200+), but they also make very reasonable carbon steel products (€30), if you want to learn how to season a carbon steel pan. They also make tri-ply products (same construction as All-Clad/Demeyere) for about €100, but having never used them, I don't know how good they are, but I assume they are of good quality.
Well, then let me also recommend Demeyere frying pans. If stainless is your thing, that pan is amazing. There are also no internal rivets, so washing is super easy.
On the other end of the spectrum (from $20 cast iron) is Demeyere. This is clad stainless, but the surface is finished in such a way that it is almost nonstick. I don't have one (I'm an All-Clad girl), but should I ever need a new pan, I would buy this one in a heartbeat.
I don't like cast iron because it's heavy and hard to use (please don't hate me, cast iron people). And while it DOES do an excellent job of retaining heat, it's not nearly as good as clad stainless for even heat distribution. And despite what people say, cast iron is not nonstick. IMO the Demeyere beats it on almost every front, but you do have to pay for it.
Just something to think about. Here's a link to their best pan on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Demeyere-Proline-5-Star-Frying-Pan/dp/B000GT6BOO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1495233336&sr=8-1&keywords=demeyere
