The two Skywatchers are the same I believe, except for the colour. The Saxon is a poorer quality unit all round, or so I heard.

Another option is the Orion 6" Mak OTA from Bintel which was going for under $1000 last time I checked. It's possibly the same scope as the Skywatcher, but I'm not certain. Stick it on an EQ5, and for around $1500 you'd have a decent setup for visual.
