Advice: 3227 OR 3717?

Tough call bro. Very subjective comparison from my view:
What I like about 3227 vs. 3717
+tough look, heavy and solid
+80110 inhouse movement >> you can debate all day long whether it's justified to be called inhouse movement. Search google for details/debate
What I don't like about 3227 vs. 3717:
-3717's bracelet looks much better
-3717 is more versatile, dress/casual wear ok, bracelet or straps ok. Different straps give different character to 3717
-it has gulloche dial
From my observation, the availability of 3717 is poorer than 3227. Does it mean 3717 is more popular? I cannot judge whether it has any relation to popularity. My usual advise, buy the one that 'speaks' to you. Can't go wrong with either one. Incase of doubt, buy both[SIZE="2"][U][B]Movement collection:[/B][/U]

some of the following questions might assist your purchase
1) are you getting to keep or for resale in future? if for resale, 3717
2) if getting for keep, i still say 3717 judging from the collection you have in your signature unless u got more that is unlisted.
like one member mentioned, when in doubt buy both. i will say it is always better to buy and then regret compared to regret not buying.

I was at Changi T1 this morning, saw 3717-04 at The Watch Shop. They offered 22% discount as well on top of 0% GST. Final price is around 6.8K. For Big Pilot no discount.[SIZE="2"][U][B]Movement collection:[/B][/U]
