38mm El Primero or the new FOIS?

The FOIS will be easier to sell if you are not keeping it for the long haul. It also depends on whether you already have another iteration of the Speedmaster. If so, that model El Primero would be my choice.
 
Zenith tugs at my heartstrings partly because it is a bit less common to see one in the wild. There are a lot of Speedmasters out there (albeit for very good reasons). But yeah, I like what Zenith does and their history is fascinating.
 
I confess to leaning toward the El Primero, though both are lovely.

I'm in the "it must have a date" demographic. ?

They really nailed it right out the gate
 
I just noticed I do not have my opinion plastered in here. The First Omega In Space is the most beautiful speedmaster.

I would put it ahead by 1 light year compared to the El Primero or 9.471*10^12 kms
 
The FOIS is just lovely. It has a domed sapphire crystal with a stealthy Omega logo, making it more practical than the Hesalite version.
The Zenith is an amazing watch, though it feels more like a statement piece—I wouldn't wear it every day.
Ideally, get both :)
