As the OP, let me modify the question a bit ...

Though I bought the OMS ergo gloves, I have yet to get them wet, and still may be able to return them for another brand/thickness. I will be diving in 57 degree freshwater at ~70 feet this upcoming weekend, and need some gloves (I normally dive bare-handed in 65-75 degree water.) I've read some good things about the Pinnacle karbonflex 4mm merino-lined kevlar gloves. Unlike the OMS, they are four-way-stretch. How much an improvement in dexterity can I expect to gain from this exchange .. versus how much a loss in warmth? Is one millimeter significant??
