Unnecessary luxury choice problem. (self.watches)

I wanted a Rolex yellow OP when it came out, waited for a year for it but then it got discontinued. I changed my 'reservation' to a DJ41 green mint. Waited 2 years for that and I guess the market cooled and I'm allowed to buy one. But should I? I really have a hard time struggling to know if I want the watch because I like it, or just because I've waited so long for it and it was a very wanted item during the pandemic. It might be a bit too big for me, but it's a sturdy good watch, but it might be too flashy, but it's a classic, but it's a lot of money... Anyways I still have a few days to decide. Not sure if there's a solution to make a choice I won't feel icky about later on. "Should/shouldn't have gotten it".

Love GS (omiwatari) but not a big seamasterfan. Also no replica. Nothing against it but I'd feel fake myself personally. I agree with the novelty colors and watches. Good for the cheap ones but expensive novelties isn't for my wallet. Loving the classics.
