Both are approx. the same price, but I’m not in the market for two.

My wrist is 6.75in, so I think either will work, but the 39mm (1815) probably fits slightly better. I Love the moon complication of the saxonia, but I think I like the overall look of the busier dial of the 1815 as its easier to dress down. I also think the movement displays better on the 1815.
Which would you prefer?
Same size wrist here. The ALS’s I’ve always liked are the 1815s. The up/down would be my choice. Being manual it should be slightly thinner making it the wear better. Future service costs would also be lower with fewer complications.
