Movement question

Which one is considered tougher. The 6R15 or the 4R36? I'm guessing the 6R15 should be since it's in the Prospex. What would the difference be.

I'm going to look then both up and figure it out. Probably no real life difference. What got me to think about it was the new Prospex watch you posted mentioned that the Prospex line is designed with the help of divers and so forth. Made me think the movement should be tougher.

I do not think the movement is any tougher than an off the shelf 6r15. I have had good luck with all of the Seiko movements
