PCC sight opinion: Nikon or Burris

I want a new dot sight for a Cx4.

My requirements:
~tube design
~1x
~ability to co-witness with iron sights

From what I've found, I've narrowed it down to these:
Monarch Dot Sight VSD 1x30 Matte from Nikon
Burris SpeedDot 135 Red Dot Sight
Burris XTS-135 SpeedDot Red Dot Sight

I'm leaning towards the Burris Speed Dot. It has a little larger FOV than the Nikon and is more "compact" than the XTS Burris. Plus it's $50 cheaper than both others. Money really isn't a major factor, but hey...$50 is $50.

Any thoughts?

I just ordered the XTS-135 myself. I know the SpeedDot has a larger field of view, but I don't care for the fact it's a 35MM; I'd prefer to be able to get a good set of aftermarket rings for a reasonable price. Going to couple the XTS-135 with the Xtreme Tactical Rings. No matter which you go with, please let us know how you like it!

Understood. I like the larger FOV...but the rings are a "down side."
