I prefer the beam wrenches because you can see how close you are to your torque spec.
For instance, when re-tightening head bolts, are they all consistently 10 lbs under or are some 5 and some 15?
They do have the disadvantage that they are not ratcheting wrenches so getting enough clearance to turn a nut is sometimes a problem.
