Battle of the Watches

After weeks of searching, we've narrowed down J's watch search to two models:

The Tag Heuer Carrera Twin Time was J's first choice. It has a fourth hand that marks a second time zone, has a clean classic face, and has a clear back through which he can admire the automatic movement.

Then, the more he talked to watch-loving friends, the more open he was to the idea of complications (those small circles all over the face). Tags with complications are chunky and heavy, but the Omega Speedmaster Day-Date is a great choice with a band almost identical to the one on the Tag. Most complications are, in my book, useless. The Omega's are actually reasonably functional: one marks the day of the week and the month, another acts as a stopwatch, and the third does something slightly more useless like tell you whether it's day or night. An extra hand also shows the time in a second time zone, so this watch has all of the Carrera's functions and then some.

Both are beautiful men's watches made by reputable companies. Does anyone have experience with either model or either brand? I am biased because Omega is a much more recognized brand in Asia, but I feel like the Omega looks like a more grownup watch that J can grow into. Tags tend to have a younger, sportier look (that doesn't always translate in photos but is pretty apparent in person). The Carrera also looks pretty much like his current Fossil, though it costs ten times more.
