The two seats are not similar at all! The have the same configuration but that is about it.
The Qatar Super Diamond is a bespoke design exclusive to QR. It is graceful and elegant with huge amounts of personal space, an extremely large tray table and double sideboard stowage. Incidentally, it uses the same (or at least a very similar) seat shell material as NGCW.
AA's J seat is off-the-shelf and entirely like the CX Cirrus. It is a bit clunky and lacks sideboard surface space.
