Interestingly, though very similar from the 1st glance many details are different, including:
- case shapes and metals (Pt and WG)
- hand shapes, colours and metals
- movements (manual and auto)
- while case sizes are similar, dial width is different due to rather different bezel
- shape of bridges.
Considering all these differences I so far cannot decide which I like better
I can see your conundrum, there are very attractive elements in both, the ideal would be an Amalgam of the both. In the absence of that my vote goes for the second
Second one, as the larger decoration pattern of the first seems to... while the finer dial pattern of the second seems to be less 'distracting' as other elements are visually featured.
I have been wearing both for some time and should say 4 most obvious differences when wearing them are: 1 Dial width. First watch feels smaller because of smaller dial. 2 Hands shape and colors. Both options are nice, but strikingly different. 3 Decoration of bridges. On the first one bridges are more narrow and refined, why on the second - more rough and masculine. 4 Winding crown size and shape.
Other differences like auto vs manual, dial pattern, etc. are a lot less obvious.
Now this is a proper first world problem πππ»

First of all huge congratulations πππ Whichever one you choose you will not go wrong - both are sublime. I personally have a slight preference for the first but like the crown and the hour ring on the second a tad better.
I mainly focused on the gold bridges. Now the background is a bit less important to me. If I had to chose the bridges of the first one are more my taste, more modern.
