I've flown on flights with less tickets available than this and still been able to get a seat assigned when purchasing only a few days before the flight. This was booked earlier this week (nearly 2 full weeks ou)

It also shows V7, so as a PM you will probably get upgraded in a few days anyway. And if not, check the seat map as soon as the upgrade window opens and you should be able to grab a seat of one of the elites who did get upgraded, which is usually a good seat. This has been my strategy if at time of booking I am unable to select a seat or if I am stuck in a bad seat.
