Icon3 What to do!? Need people I've never met to help spend my money!

Is it crazy to think I could find a 16750 for under 10k? I purchased a 14060 thinking it would be like a newer Tudor 7928, which is now my special occasion watch since it was my grandfather's. I like the 14060 but just not as much as I thought I would. It doesn't have the same connection/appeal as the Tudor, not sure if it's because of the sentiment or the vintage. So I've been looking and came across the 1675s and 16750s. They are more unique and less like what I have.

The end plan for this watch is my son will be born in July and SWMBO said I could get a watch to pass on. This may be my only chance to pick one with her permission. We do love to travel and hope to do so extensively in our lives so getting a GMT is maybe it's a good way to not forget that dream or traveling. I hope to wear this watch every day and am thinking that a GMT may not be as recognized as a Sub. Which means traveling with it might draw less attention.

So between keeping the 14060 or selling it for a 1675 or 16750 (matte dial, of course). What would you do for an heirloom watch?
I might be able to go up to 13-14k but it would be a month or so before that.
