As for the SkyWatchers, some ARE now coming with Crayford Type focusers instead of Rack & Pinion. I'm holding out for a 10" SkyWatcher dob as the ones arriving at BTOW do have crayfords. You may need to check that Crayfords are on the SW680.
You may want to confirm this, but I heard that the new SkyWatcher 6" and 8" dobs now have a focal length of 1000mm instead of 1200mm. Even so the view will be great.
