The Lloyds is the ultimate in simple design, but it has a felt lipped light trap that must be cleaned before loading a new roll of film. The Watson is a bit more complicated, having a fairly accurate exposure counter ( with the Lloyd you count turns of the crank) and a rotating drum that works as a light baffle. It does put a pressure mark on the film when closed though, from time to time. The Watson is also a bit more of a film hog if you are using it in daylight, as you have to pull about 3 inches of film past the light baffle to load the cassette. If you are good in the dark, go with the Watson, if you don't mind not knowing exactly how many exposures your film is, go with the Lloyd.
