Great position to be in! Sounds like you've done your research and probably have a gut feeling already.
For what it's worth the speedmaster is an iconic piece and a part of a number of peoples collections. It's got history as you liked about the explorer and easy to dress up and down. I would keep the SKX for water and heavier activities and get the speedmaster for a more all round package!
