Which brake levers?

Hi folks, i need a bit of advice in choosing some brake levers for a pink and black 1992 Bottecchia.

I found it equipped with different parts, mostly Shimano 105, and then found a cheap bike from which I stripped an almost complete Dura Ace groupset. I am still missing the downtube shifter levers (I will look for Dura Ace) and the brake levers.
Should I make the effort of finding Dura Ace? Is there another technically good set of levers from that period, like Dia Compe, or something else?
I think I want something with black hoods, and not too expensive (EUR 20-30 for the pair would be ok, maybe a bit more if necessary).

I am a complete noob on this craft, everything I know about this period is hearsay, but I intend to ride this one, and I want it to be able to stop while being handsome

Thank you
