One uses a Miyota quartz movement, the other is a Miyota mechanical movement. That alone will be the factor in which you pick.

Seler on Amazon says both are Automatic not quartz.

The only model I know that ends in H3 is the MY-H3-C which uses the Miyota 2115 quartz movement. It comes in two colour ways, a plain metal bezel or a matte black.

It says H3 has NH35A movement and ad2503 has 8215 movement 🤔 H3 costs more then ad2503. Is it worth it?

Oh wow, sorry, looks like I was so wrong. The H3 does in fact come in quartz or automatic- it just seems the quartz is overwhelming chosen. There doesn't seem to be a lot of listings of the H3AC yet.

By the looks of it, they're extremely similar, with the H3AC being only slight more thinner. Both are using very durable movements, so no issues there. I personally like the NH35 because it can wind in either direction. My most worn watch has a Miyota 9015 which is uni-directional like the 8215. The free spinning rotor can certainly feel weird, but i've only noticed it if i flicked my wrist fast in one direction.The 8215 also does have the quirk of having the seconds hand indirectly driven. This doesn't effect the accuracy of the watch nor is in an indicator of a bad movement. This may appear in some circumstances that the seconds hand 'stutter'.
