If I was going to spend that much money on the watch it would be only Zeitwerk. If you can afford it go for it.

Since you already own a stunning Lange and a SS GMT IIC as well, in the price range (of the watches featured in the poll) I'd much rather get a Patek or AP, just to make your collection more diverse.

Already have the PP and APs that I like... well there ARE a couple more that I wouldn't mind (PP 3939, PP 5296, AP RG 15202).

IMHO a PP annual calendar would fit in your collection perfectly 5960P maybe?
