Wow. ADs use to hate on the grey market. Now the shortage is so bad they refer you over.

How about a PP Calatrava 5227? Beautiful in Rose gold. Automatic with neat cover over exhibition back. There is one on eBay - asking price $27000. Make offer. Pure elegant class and will hold value. James in San Antonio tx

If you like the CB check out the CS. The MSRP is higher, but the secondary price is in your budget. Platinum or rose gold, 2 different dial styles to choose from.

pp 5227 or 5196.
Lange Saxonia or 1815 or for more money Lange One.
FPJ CS.
JLC ultra thin moon 39

Personally, I don’t like the VC 56 line as it feels cheap and underwhelming to me. I also don’t think the VC overseas is any more dressier than your datejust.

I would go for a Lange, a VC, or a JLC, in that order, with a healthy discount.
