would go for second one because of the sapphire glass.
I personally had considered EQS-1100DB-1AV at price of about RM950, Downside: not interchangeable with leather strap, heavy/ bulky/ four buttons instead of screw-in crown, it's still a beautiful watch at that price range.
Even though a lot of sifu/ big shots / big guns/ high flyers are here to after "something other than functionality" and I guess they won't deny Casio tops functionality/ price ratio chart.
Generally speaking, parameter left for you to compare is selling prices among merchants and I guess the difference would not exceed RM200,

Casio is no doubt reliable, but at RM950, there's alot of choices in brand/style that you can choose from. Seiko, Orient and Citizen has alot of choices in that price range. If black pvd is what you're looking for, then Casio has more of them.
But at the end of the day, like outpace said, it depends on the discount you get.
On the other hand, wanted to ask how you guys rate the Orient Ray in comparison with the Seiko Monster or SKX007?
Posted in the Seiko thread but did not get much feedback.
Thanks.
