My brother owns the 1861 sapphires, which I also really liked. When I bought my 3861 last year, my choice was still the Hesalit. What was significant for me was not the proximity to the original at all, but rather the direct visual comparison between the two. The Hesalit variant actually looked nicer to me. It also looks a bit larger, purely subjective. Further plus points were the completely brushed steel strap and the steel base with the special "Hippocampus" symbol. What I should also mention is that my wife immediately pointed to the Hesalit variant. So the matter was clear to me.
One more thing about the alleged sensitivity regarding the Hesalite, because I was concerned with this point before I bought it. After wearing it for more than half a year, it hasn't got a small scratch, it's absolutely sturdy!
