Debating if I should leap to a 1016

I'm usually getting watches around the 5-7k area, but i'm on the fence in moving up to a vintage 1016.

Pros: I like the design and it seems to have a next level mature factor to it.
Cons: Not use to 36mm, 38-39mm is my ideal size. Usually prefer waterproof watches. Need to check on that with the 1016.

I remember seeing the 1016 on a leather strap about 5 years ago. Wish I bought it as prices went up a lot. Not sure if i'll have buyers remorse, and trying it on now would be very difficult but maybe I can.

Currently have the 39mm white op, and flipping it would ease my purchase but not necessary. Not in any financial strains, but frugal in my spending habits.

On the fence here.
