[Bulova Oceanographer GMT] Need some advice deciding between the Bulova GMT and the Citizen Series 8 GMT. (alien.top)

I'm looking at both the Bulova Oceanographer GMT, Pepsi Dial, and the Citizen Series 8 GMT, also the Pepsi variation. The Bulova, more of the "dive" watch based on the history of the Oceanographer series, uses the Miyota 9075 movement, the Citizen uses a in-house GMT movement (my guess, a variation of the 9075?). Both are true GMT's and have characteristics that I like. I do own a Limited Edition Orange Oceanographer, 296 of 666 made ... so leaning toward Bulova. Anyone have experience with either? Thoughts?

The Series8 uses the 9054 movement, which is a modestly-upgraded version of the 9075 for use exclusively by Citizen.
