JLC Geophysics 1958 OR Geophysics True Second

Hi guys.. I am creating a new thread on this topic.

As some might noticed, I have put up a thread comparing watches and I am still in doubt (poor wallet since budget kept increasing). FYI I have changed my mind from trying to get:
1. IWC portofino automatic with milanese bracelet
2. IWC portofino chronograph with milanese bracelet
3. JLC MC with bracelet
4. ?

And NOW I am changing my mind to either

JLC geophysics 1958 ( I think I can still get brand new one available somewhere) or JLC Geophysics true Second (Geo TS) with bracelet (supply should be easy with this one)

The original requirements still holds:
1. I want versatile enuf, elegant daily watch which I can dress up / down
2. It needs to be stainless bracelet (still undecided depending on the watch i guess, my main concern is my wallet wont be happy paying 500 leather band every few years lol)
3. honestly I like non cluttered dial (hence the so far the options has been "boring" / "dull" to some people here hehehe)
4. date / no date = does not matter as long as it looks good
5. It is gonna be my first lux watch and gonna wear it daily. I dont wear suit to work, but the usual smarts + short/long sleeve shirt (no jeans)
6. I am not gonna wear it to swimming / sports, so its gonna be casual stuff, work stuff at the office, so it should be "safe" enuf from unwanted exposure.
7. I am 38 y o
8. I am trying to buy "prestigious" brand and try to be unique, elegant. hence staying away from OMEGA, ROLEX etc.

Unfortunately the JLC 1958 does not come with bracelet, although I found some articles that the bracelet from true second fits (but AD sent email to me that it doesnt fit). So I do not know for sure.. maybe someone here have experience on this thing?

I have seen the geo TS in person and tried it, but I hesitated due to the quartz like second movement.. but then again, my taste so far has been simple stealthy kinda watch, I dont need people to acknowledge my watch as long as I am happy, I think I am secure enough in that sense (otherwise I would get a Rolex ahahha)

Not many people would appreciate JLC (since they arent watch nerds like us), let alone the quartz movement on geo TS. I am talking about indonesia/singapore (asian countries) where ROLEX is THE brand here for most people....

So anyway, Can you anyone who have experience on either or both watch give comments on why should I OR why shouldnt I get either watch?
What about quality of TS since it is relatively brand new thing from JLC.

thnx everyone, hope you can help an undecided fellow here. I have got another month to make up my mind :)
