Congrats...always nice to read a thread that started with a question on which to buy, followed by all the comments and finally the thread starter making a choice and sharing!

For every watch, the price is going to increase 7-8% 1-3 weeks after you walk into the boutique.

most of the time yes... but weirdly these few Tag's that i've been monitoring since April... there's no price increase in Malaysia...
but it increased almost EUR200 in Europe 2 months before my trip :Scolding:

It's not that. Better on your wrist than in a locker room somewhere.

Between the 2, I'd chosen the Aquaracer as well. Nice white dial. Wear it in good health!  :Cheers:

Both the watches are of the same pedigree,meaning both are just that good.

I just had the same problem,just last week.
can't decide between Corum Admiral cup Tides 48mm or the Corum Admiral Chronograph 48mm.
Both are just fantastic watches.
But ultimately after all the googling and expert advise,you just have to go with your heart.
Which one makes you feel a little bit better than the other one.

For me, the Tides wins me over.
Have fun while it last,cos the period of about to buy a watch is the best part.
