Buying New vs. Used

Howdy all, fist post here. I am getting married in May and want to get either a 114270 Explorer or 126234 Datejust (fluted, silver dial on oyster) to commemorate it. The 36mm case size is what draws me to both these watches. I have checked out both in person (while not side by side) and have decided that I like the Explorer a little more due to its under the radar characteristics and that I'm only 24 and pretty casual guy. My question is, should I go for the Datejust since it is new? I've seen quite a few things saying you should buy your first Rolex new and wanted to get the community's opinion on whether that is true or not. If it is any help, if the Explorer didn't go to 39mm I don't think I ever would have seriously considered the Datejust. Thanks for the help!

TLDR: Buying new vs. used (discontinued model) to commemorate getting married.
