Buying Advice

So a few years ago my grandfather passed me his 1962 Tudor sub from his EOD days. I felt so blessed to have that and enjoy wearing it so much that I decided to do the same if I had a son.

Well last week I found out I was having a son, so I convinced the wife to let me shop. I have a few options that I'd love some advice on. The intention is to pass down this watch and I'd like a close to the Tudor as I can afford with some modern conveniences like a sapphire crystal.

So I came across the 14060 as the closed modern relative to the Tudor I have. Should I:

1) Get a new ceramic sub even though I'm not a 100% fan of the fit and bezel
2) Get the newest/nicest 14060 I can find to take advantages of the modern conveniences and vintage look
3) Seek out the newest/nicest 14060 with tritium so it can patina like my Tudor and most of the wear will be from me

So if you were in my shoes what would you do?
