Very tough decision...

Hi there -
I am sorry to your about your LF. I have an Origin Opaline (which is the piece you have also I think) and have enjoyed it as you had hoped to. I understand the need to move on at this point!
The Tonda vs Overseas was top of my mind in late 2022. I did not have access to an MSRP Overseas though.
I did end up procuring a Tonda PF Microrotor (40mm, dark grey dial on SS bracelet). This has become my daily. You prefer the gold version it seems? It is very nice, I think 1mm larger than the Microrotor.
I still do want to pair it with a blue Overseas in the collection though. I am thinking Gen 1 possibly, or see if they release a 37-38mm version in the near future (35mm was just released in gen 3).
For your decision, you might go with both eventually.
The pros to getting an Overseas now are that they are much harder to come by than the Tondas at MSRP.
The cons (for me) of the Overseas are that I think I want to wait until the next refresh to see how sizing is, as the current version looks pretty large on my wrist, and the Tonda feels pretty good.
Go with your heart! Pictures included for sizing comparison (since you know how the LF wears, I include it too)
