I've never looked through the 3-6 Nag, so take this for what it's worth…

Considering the price of these two and having used what I have used and knowing what I know, I would be buying the 5mm Pentax XW in a flash. It fits within the price range and is a better eyepiece optically, comfort wise and in terms of FOV, than the two you are considering. If you want the convenience of a short focal length zoom the Nagler 3-6 is an excellent choice, but not the equal of the 5mm XW optically. IMO the 5mm Tak LE is a good eyepiece but not the equal of the 5mm UO HD ortho, which is 1/2 the price of the Tak LE.
