Both are excellent in their own way.
Watchmen is basically a deconstruction of the superhero genre, and, given the way Moore writes, it may be a little heavy and confusing for a first book.
Sin City is one of my favourite series, little dark, but if you've watched the movie, you'll know what you'll get.
If you want some other suggestions
V For Vendetta - Alan Moore again, looking at a dystopian future Britian
Sandman - Neil Gaiman, the life and times of Morpheus the king of dreams. The issue dealing with Midsummer Nights Dream is the only comic to win a Workd Fantasy Award. They changed the rules afterwards so comics couldn't win.
Astro City - Superheroes done in the old style, bright, colourful and incredibly well done.
Usagi Yojimbo - Tales of a travelling samurai, all done with Animals. Much better than i could make it sound.
Transmetropolitan - Warren Ellis, another dystopian future, this time the US, and following around a journalist. Dark but very funny.

As someone already said, I would recmmend reading things from Image. "Monstress" by Marjorie Lu and Sana Takaeda is just amazing, both in story telling and in art.
"Saga" is another great comic of the editorial, and even as much as I love them still, the first were the best.
also there is a series called "Descender" about a robots rebellion which I find to be amazing, one of the best things I've ever seen.

From Hell by Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell.
I was in the beginning and shall be forever. The first and the last. The world come full circle. I am time, the destroyer. I was the wind and the stars before this. Before planets. Before heaven and hell. And when all is done, I will be wind again, to blow this world as dust back into endless space.
