As others have said, Logitech MX Ergo springs to mind. Lacks bearings and repairability, but is of decent quality.
If Logitech isn't your thing, there's also the ProtoArc EM01 - basically an MX Ergo clone with RGB and USB-C, but inferior tilt.
There're also Elecom, whose EX-G is also decent but on a personal level, Im not a fan of the right click - too light. Sanwa -- Amazon Link -- and Perixx are competitors to/similar to the Elecom offerings.
Ploopy might be your best bet in terms of repairability, though their offering is a little rough around the edges (figuratively and literally, they're a 3d-printed startup but seem to have a decent following).
Links with the exception of Sanwa are to the manufacturer's pages.
The EM01 is what I'm using :) Maybe my expectations are too high, but this just feels bad, especially when trying to move the cursor just a little. And it's only like 2-3 months old.
I've got a standard Perixx mouse, but might have a look at their trackball mice.
Ploopy has been on my radar, but misses too many points on my feature list, namely wireless connectivity.
Elecom is hard to get here, apparently (Canada), but I've been looking at their mice, too.
Goddammit, Logitech! I'd be totally happy adding another Logitech product to my life, but they miss too many features.
