Which Boots? Used look or new?

Just curious, I'm in the market for a new set of boots and have never owned a pair of Indy boots so I decided to go that route. Because I live in the Great Pacific NorthWET I really need to go with a lug sole. I know some folks don't like them but I've found them so reliable on slippery leather soles.
I own a Nowak CS and have a AB CS on order.
So what are everyone's thoughts on the look of these shoes.
These are some of my favorites "appearance" wise.
VINTAGE-Look
Oiled nubuck
Dark brown oilskin
Other offered leathers
NEW
Saddle
Dark brown aniline calfskin

I really like the Oiled Nubuck: maybe a little too dark for a CS look...but for me this isn't a problem: the skin it's spectacular and, if you wanto to replicate the movie look, you'll simply apply some dust on it.

I like dark brown aniline calfskin, provided it does look like the photo and it is not too red.

Yes, those are probably my favorite. However if Magnoli could make his boot using the first of the alternative leathers on the cowboy boot picture they might compare.
