I'd stick with the 16800 matte. I don't think the plots are different sizes.

16800's can be had with three different types of date wheels.

Silver with open 6 and 9's in the first runs
White open 6 and 9 in the later versions (both matte and gloss dial)
White closed 6 and 9 modern small font service discs.

The open 6 and 9 is better as it is the larger font and has that vintage feel. It is possible to ge a 3135 based sub with old style font and open 6 and 9's but very uncommon.

I have a 1680 white and a 16800. Both get equal wrist time and you can't go wrong with either. Both have the silver date disc.
