Good clipper for closest shave?

I've been using Philips Norelco QC5170 for the last 4 years or so. Always just the clipper part without the guard to get a close shave. I don't like/want to go all the way with a wet shave or a face-type trimmer for a closer shave.
I've tried other clipper types but they all leave my hair a little too long for my liking. The Philips Norelco QC5170 seems to get down to 1mm whilst others are more like 2mm.
Does anyone have any other recommendations as the Philips Norelco QC5170 seems to be discontinued.

I personally use a Wahl clipper to buzz my hair. Have been using if for about 4 years. I believe this is the same clipper you will find in use in most barber shops. If I'm not mistaken, I believe I was able to score mine at Costco for less than $30(may have been on sale at the time).
