I've been researching these two watches as much as I can and just can't decide between them. I like them equally in terms of looks. The functions of the Speedmaster are nice to have but not necessary for me.
I like the water resistance of the Seamaster, but again, it's not necessary for me.
All things being equal, I would be leaning toward the Seamaster, if it weren't for the difference in the movements. I think I like the 1861 movement of the Speedmaster more, since I have heard that it is more shock resistant than the 1120, and might last longer as well. Is this true? I think my decision is going to come down to the pros and cons of these two movements. An automatic is nice but I don't mind needing to wind every day either.
