I'd go for the cheapest 2023 I could find. I wouldn't go 2021 unless the price different is significant.

 
The modern Rolex watches will need a service within 4-6 years. nothing to do with watch wearing habit but with the usage of modern oils.
A 2023 will keep you "away " from that extra 1K spending for a while.

As for the bezel. I wouldn't worry too much. Rolex are committed for 30 years pf parts... you will always be able to get a "better" / newer insert if something happened.
