GMT 1675 - which one would you choose ?

Hi. First post on this awesome forum after many years of reading & learning.
A big thanks btw

Just for the background, Rolex passion hit me few years ago thanks to a good friend.
Along these last years I have acquired a silver Airking 14000, a black Explorer II 16570 and a beautiful Sub 5513 Mark V (full set).

I'm now heading towards a GMT Master 1675 which was not my favorite model at the beginning but which progressively grew into me.

After many months looking around here and there, I'm hesitating between those two models :
#1 : MK IV (1977) - Very good case & lugs, great patina and lovely faded bezel (price 12 500€). Clearly a more vintage look.
#2 : MK II (1972) - Case is not as sharp with lugs clearly polished, but I just fell in love with the patina... And rarely had I seen such an incredible match between dial and hands.
Also like the open 6&9. Comes with box & documentation (price 11 500€).
Apart from the more used case & lugs, the second one looks "newer". And again I find the dial and hands patina just stunning.
