JLC vs Zenith

Hivemind:

I'm still all over the place with what I want (new vs. vintage, etc) but among two modern refs I'm considering:

the JLC ultra thin

the Zenith Elite ultra thin

Both are rose gold, time-only dress watches with exhibition casebacks, but the similarities kinda end there. The JLC is considerably smaller at 34mm, and is a manual wind. The Zenith is 40mm and an automatic. The JLC is a two-hander; the the Zenith has a small-seconds complication (unconventionally, at 9).

Just wondering, if you were deliberating between these two, which would you be inclined toward and why? Anyone have experience with either (or both--unlikely, I know)? Pricing is comparable/equivalent here---in the 5-6k range, USD.
