Fulcrum very slightly lighter. Campy is C19 inner width instead of C17. What width tyres are you considering?
Fulcrum 108kg rider limit, Campy 120kg total weight limit (rider + bike)
Otherwise I'd go with best price and/or your preferences about look.
I wouldn't pay $2.5k for a wheelset though, to be frank. Plenty of other quality carbon wheelsets available for a grand less than that.

I have ordered some LB WR50 wheels for the gravelly.
Ended up more than I'd like still.
But wide and with brass nipples, cx ray spokes and dt swiss hubs.

I have a set I'm very happy with, and a mate of mine who races has three sets. No issues at all, and well priced.
