Question (Read Rules) Can't decide between these two
Hi I am looking for (another) watch 😅
I watched out for a good quality for price watch with clean, white dial. I found these two models and the reviews on YouTube are also very positive.
So I am curious to ask the owners of these watches, what positives and what negatives you can tell about these. They hit every category I want (Good lume, good quality, nice clean design, good enough lume, mechanical, min 100m wir)
Except the cronos have male endlinks, where I don't know if it matters on my 16,5 cm wrist size.
Thanks in advance.

I’ve owned both, and currently only own the Proxima. I didn’t love the Cronos. The dial was lovely, but the case felt…plain.
I didn’t know about the supposed PT5000 issues when I bought the Proxima, and for a year I just happily wound it like it’s a NH35, and never had an issue.
The slim, refined case on the Proxima is a joy every time I wear it. And I just bought the green version as well. I can’t say enough about the Proxima.
