Go for the DME in F, no jet lag and, honestly, Moscow is utterly amazing, just be sure to go for a reasonable hotel and it will be great. Every corner you turn has a wow moment ... I got the last two tickets to the Bolshoi Ballet, just by chance, about two weeks before arriving, and it was a life-changing experience.
And given current instability, politically and economically, I wanted to go before either got worse, no matter how much better the former makes for the strength of the GBP.
