RE: I do not want to buy...

I haven't heard those two, but I can tell you that Grado's "house sound" is usually perceived as being very different from Sennheiser's. The type of sound that suits you best might depend on the musical style(s) that you like most.
Sennheiser styling is certainly sleeker and more modern. Grado styling looks chunky and "retro".
I would say that the way more expensive Grado HP-1 would be a better investment, keeping it's resale value should you decide that they are not for you.
Are you sure that you would want open-backed headphones in an office atmosphere? Sound leakage might be sort of annoying to others around you.
