What brand torque wrench to buy?

I need to replace my old 3/8 inch drive torque wrench. I'm considering either the Craftsman Digitork or the Precision Instruments/SnapOn split beam model. I know a tool truck guy so that prices with a case and tax would be around $105 for either one. The Craftsman reads from 5-80 ft lbs. with 3% accuracy while the PI reads 20-100 ft lbs. with 4% accuracy. Both are rated accurate down to 20% of their full scale or 16 ft lbs. for the Craftsman and 20 ft lbs. for the PI. The Craftsman needs to be turned down after use but it has an easier to see display window. The PI has swivel head and a 20 ft lb. higher top end. Any suggestions or recomendations?
