1680 pip help. Replace with factory old stock pip or factory ghost bezel non oem pip

I just got the 5600000 serial 1680 very sharp watch. Looks to be in hardly worn condition. I want to get a new pop with some yellow color to it. Found on eBay a dealer who sells old used stock pip. Or should I get a factory ghost bezel but it has an aftermarket pip?




Also a friend suggested I keep the old pip in the old bezel but get a 2nd bezel to keep the original part thing going.
Guys help me out here. Am I over thinking this factory “original” thing too much. PiPs aren’t that big of deal are they? Should I just pop my old pip out. I guess I’ll keep it stored.



As you can see it’s in very good shape given the crown guards are so sharp. This makes me think the grey bezel won’t match this newer condition look.
So just get a factory pip that is used?
