Hi MC,
Of course you have to pick one you actually want to gaze and muse upon first. For the me the Deco Diva wins it on looks by a mile, but aesthetics aside.....
..... flip it over and I think the VC demonstrates more finishes and particularly 3 perhaps arguably 4 difficult inward anglages.
I've never liked the 3/4 plate style. It just leaves a large uninteresting canvas of stripes and makes servicing slightly more tricky when lining up all the wheels. The balance cock engraving is an unnecessary affectation with no horological function.
There is slightly more mechanism to see in the VC. The screw back is a nice bonus on the VC.
Neither are freesprung.
