The FXD would get my vote, unless I need to know the date. I'm hoping to do some travelling in SE Asia next Jan/Feb, the 243 will be my choice for that.
I totally don't want to know the time back home when I am on holiday.
I am still enjoying wearing this on my mini break.
The CNS strap which I brushed the hardware and put in the extra hole has made it much better to wear.
My wrist did expand in the heat but now I can get the perfect fit.
