People are comparing them because of the size aspect, i  dont really know why as one (in the retail, NOT, msrp world) is 2x the cost of the other. 

I could do this with pictures, and will if its requested but those who say they are of comprable size are, well, wrong.  Although the diameter is similar the Dweller stands at least 30+ percent taller off the wrist.  Is it a bad thing, not really.  but it will find its way out of just about everything but a parka sleve.  Which is why today i am trying the rubber strap. 

In reguards to the bracelet.  Both the dweller and the monster are comphy.  but the edge goes to the dweller for sure. This is mostly personal taste, but the polished parts of the monsters are not my taste.  That, and the dwellers is a work of art. 

Movement?  the 7S26 in my monster as well as the miyota 8215 are both doing quite well at the moment, both gaining only a few seconds every couple of days.  If i were to have ONLY ONE complaint about the dweller is that, everytime i move my wrist i can actually hear the movement doing its thing.  Clicking and buzzing away, while im typing or flipping my wrist at my lab bench (im a chemist) to check the time.  Is it offputting, not really.  But i notice it, and it should be noted that im neourtic. 

The lume?...If my monster even peeks at light, it is charged.  The Dweller takes a bit more, but i like the color of its lume much better.

In the end..i cant reccomend the dweller enough, just know it is big, and heavy..but not in a bad way...its more like in that " i could drop a man with this watch if i had to" kind of way.

 

buy it.
