Help me decide on a poorfag cope watch, effay, I got a raise and of course I'm gonna spend it like a retard to impress men (ok also hopefully women but to be honest men, durr hurr durr I wear it to impress myself, I also smoke weed for the taste), the choices are:

AQ4020-54Y
SBGX263
SBGN011
SBGN029
LLD 36mm on a milanese

The AQ ticks almost all of the boxes but the stories about citizen support kinda scare me a little, and also I prefer the way the soiko second hands move, Also I already have a decent collection of vintage and modern soiko so a GS would better scratch the itch

The SBGX263 is the only other competitor to the AQ in the size department, but I don't like the absence of the independently adjustable hour hand, and the lack of a perpetual calendar is kinda cheesy too. Also the blank space in the bottom half of the dial I'm a little unsure if I like or don't. I will say it looks like the image I have in my head as the platonic ideal of an adult's watch so it has that going for it.

The SBGN011 scratches my itch for a blued hand on a soiko that has gone unscratched since I missed out on the blue spark back in the day. However it is a bit too large for me at 40mm. I can live without the perpetual calendar because it has the GMT and ind. adjust. hour hand.

The SBGN029 is kinda almost ok size wise, still a little big at 39mm but the lug to lug is with half a mm of the first two. I love the red GMT hand on the black dial and I very much love the 24 hour bezel, the lume also means a lot to me, but the white background on the date window kinda irritates me.

The LLD 36mm on a milanese is my concession to really really wanting a LLD but being too much of a wristlet for the real thing. I am only mentioning it to add some diversity to the selections. I do wonder if the milanese longines bracelet is better than what's on the japanese watches. I'm kinda done with mechanicals though, I've already got too many and this one doesn't even have a very interesting MVMT.
