116528 or 116508

I have a 116520 white dial and love it. I have a birthday coming and I really want to get my first PM.

Do I get the 116528 white dial EX for 40k
Pros: twins to my 520, 10k cheaper
Cons: Older model
or
Do I get the 116508 white dial brand newish 50k
Pros: newer model
Cons: wears bigger 10K more.

Please fill me in on anything I might be missing?

I am a girl, yes it looks big on me. yes I love it. Yes it looks cool as hell.

116508 white dial full set should be closer to 40k. The prices you quoted are grossly inflated.

116528 and 116508 share the exact same case. The only difference is the font on the bezel. Get the one in the best condition. Unpolished would be a plus

I tend to prefer newer models but given how similar the two references are, I would focus on best condition and price
