David: Both, of course! Just kidding.

I can't help you with geographic relevance/proximity, but I do own a Strathtummel kilt of Sthrathmore W60 tartan. It is beautiful. I bought it mostly for the purple/heather colors.

A good computer representation of both tartans may be seen at

If you click on any of the small tartan snaps, you will be shown a larger version. They all look remarkably close to the real tartan. Also, Strathmore has a five-pack of swatches of these tartans and I'm sure would be glad to send you one.

Good luck on your search and selection.
