I commute into Southwark for work every day from Watford Met tube station. I get a monthly season ticket for the tube from Zone A (Watford) to Zone 1 for about £176. It is about £100 a month cheaper than using rail from Watford Junction rail station.
Parking at Watford Met station is also cheaper (or at least it used be, not sure what parking charges are like at Watford Junction anymore).
As a footnote, if you a buy a tube monthly season ticket, you have to use an Oyster card. Watford Junction is scheduled to start accepting Oyster Cards in November when the Silverlink Metro service is handed over to Transport for London.
