Bexei or Voutilainen

I’m fairly certain that I’ve narrowed it down between these two for my next large acquisition. Although it won’t happen for many months, maybe a year from now, it’s fun to think about. There is obviously no right answer. I love both of these makers and I’m curious what others think.
Voutilainen’s watches are breathtaking. They ooze quality. Although his production numbers aren’t high, he does make around 50 per year, I believe. And so his watch would feel more like a product of a brand to me. Also, there is a striking resemblance between Voutilainen and Jurgensen. They aren’t necessarily the most unique looking of watches.
Bexei is essentially a one man show. He does employ a few helpers but his production numbers are in the single digits per year (I believe 5 or 6). His watches do have a more unique look to them, at least to my eyes. They are beautifully made, although slightly thick at 14mm.
Either would fit well into my growing collection.
