JLC vs Blancpain Perpetual

Debating between a JLC ultra thin or Blancpain (6056 or 6057) perpetual calendar. I like that both choices are more compact since I have small wrists but wondering which would be the best to go with. I can find all of them for around the same price but the Blancpains would be a bit older. I have a Reverso so love all things JLC but wondering if I should switch it up or just stick with another JLC. Thanks!

I usually prefer brand diversity but would probably go with the JLC here.

I would go with a Blancpain Leman perpetual calendar Chrono.

I am a happy owner of JLC ultra thin perpertual. I think the thin case and the quick set button. The dial is very symmetric and I do think it is the best looking perpetual watch. I love this Dr strange

Is the Blancpain one that the calendar is set by levers under the lugs using just a fingernail. If so, I would go with the Bp all day over anything else.

The 6056 uses pushers but the 6057 uses the levers under the lugs!
