Devoucoux and Butet saddles

[blood_magik]

I'm still looking for a new jumping saddle and was wondering if Devoucoux and Butet are worth the money?

My RI has a devoucoux and it looks beautiful. I'm waiting to try it but I've been told that I won't want to ride in anything else.
However, a search on here came up with a number of people who were having problems with the fit even though the saddles had supposedly been fitted to their horses.
Has anyone bought one recently? Is this still the case?

Butet has also come highly recommended but they're both a lot of money. I could buy two saddles for what I would be paying for one.

Opinions, both good and bad, would be appreciated.

is this for showjumping? Ive ridden in both of those and actually preferred prestige!

I have a Pessoa gen X elite- it has an adjustable gullet and is also flocking so can be fitted but is the closest flocked saddle you can get, I love it and can get a good position in it easily, it's a very secure saddle and cheaper than the two you are looking at. Also has a 20 year gaurentee on the tree and 2 year on the leatherwork which is a nice extra

yup
I know the devoucoux fits him, which is the most important thing. The price and customer service reviews are putting me off at the moment.

I've been looking at a few different saddles and Butet, Albion, Prestige and Devoucoux keep coming up.
I've looked at the Pessoa Amo, the Prestige Arezzo D, the Albion K2 and Kontrol and the Equipe expression.
