Hey all,
As some of you might be aware of from my other thread I've bought some ZULU straps.
I messured my previous watch strap on my current watch, and it was also 20mm so I thought it would fit perfectly. The only thing I didn't really think of, is that the ZULU straps are way more sturdy (is that the correct word?* :laugh: ) than my current ones!
But I really need a new strap and I think I love the ZULU straps, I decided to buy a new watch.
There are 2 candidates for this and I need your help choosing which one (not for the looks but mainly for the price/quality etc)
The first one is this:

It's a Wenger (Swiss army) Brigade with glow-in-the dark hands and datum thingy. The inside of this watch is great though since it's a Swiss Quartz and Sapphire glass. This watch is 115euro's including shipping.
The other one is this (black one on the top right):

It's a Boccia outside watch. Great thing about this watch is that it's only 20euro's more expensive and the casing is Titanium! The glass is Sapphire and it's a Chronograph which is cooler than just time and date ;) The price of this one is 135euro's (discount from 200!).
The down part about the last one is that I don't know the inside, what kind of mechanism is in it etc and that I'm not sure of my ZULU will fit on this watch (it probably does and I can check that out). It might also be too big for my small wrists but that's not your concern ;)
The main question is; which watch is better and more reliable?
Thanks for reading!
