Sub NO Date dilemma

Dear fellow members:

I kindly request your opinions and/or counsel on the following "dilemma":

I presently own (and truly love) a Submariner date ref 1680 (not red) bought brand new in 1977... But ...

I had always been missing my Sub no date model 5513 (from 1966), which I lost during an armed robbery I suffered years ago.

Now, I had been thinking a lot about buying a model 14060M, but a brand new watch.
A little investigation here in Argentina, tells me that the present model 14060M which is available from the AD, and the one Rolex of Argentina is importing here, is the model Offcially certified chronometer, which has a rather cluttered dial face, in my opinion, instead of the classic, plain old styled dial, which I find so nice.

I really wanted the plainer dial face of my older model 5513 and non certified
14060, but wouldnŽt like to go to the pre owned market here, nor buying overseas.

Will you please give me your opinion on this model?
Pictures?
Should I take the plunge and buy this new version?
IŽll very much appreciate your comments and thoughts.
Cordial regards, Abel
