Datejust 41 or Speedmaster?

Of course the title doesn't make sense so I will make a long story short. When I first got into watches I really wanted an Omega SMP but didn't have the budget. Settled for a Tag Aquaracer and sold it a year later to help fund my Sub 114060 which I love (my first keeper watch) and I am looking to expand my collection in the future.

Before I pulled the trigger on the Sub, I decided on the Speedmaster but realized the bracelet doesn't fit right and that if I am going to own this watch, I want it on a black leather strap. I didn't want leather and manual wind for every day wear and also decided I like the hesalite version best, so I wanted something more scratch resistant.

Recently I have become obsessed with the new DJ41, specifically smooth bezel on jubilee – Rhodium or blue dial (pictures absolutely welcomed, please and thank you).

I would appreciate your thoughts and comments on whether you would go for the SMP on leather (with the option to add/change straps) or the Datejust41 (and which dial between the blue and rhodium) as my next piece.

I sell real estate for a living, so both work equally well in my opinion in terms of wardrobe/formality.

A big consideration is that the Omega can be had about $3500 less than the Datejust, and I already bought the "more expensive one" starting with the Sub. This forum is a dangerous place haha.

Thanks!
