Depending on what you want.
Maurice Lacroix is a young brand lacking in history, so their designs can be more modern and without historical baggage.
Tag Heuer has a longer history and their watches' design is normally a modern take on a vintage design.

What specific models are you comparing? If you can narrow down then we can have a better opinion.

if you are comparing pontos vs aquaracer chrono... should be identical... most probably the SW500-1

Out of all those models that u named, only the Pontos S Diver and the Tag 500m that I fancy.
The Tag 500m comes with ceramic bezel.
Tried it before and it's pretty nice.

The Pontos S Diver is also quite nice.
Have not seen it in real life, but in pics look really nice.

Both should use the same sellita movements.
If you're so tied up on specs, both beat at 28,800 VPH.
Prices are also similar.

interesting.

or even the longines LLD for below rm5k...after discount :P

i tried the pontos s diver before, yes looks nice in pics.
but in real life, its actually quite heavy...guess thats what you get for a 600m WR case.
