I have a 4" 617 no dash and a 4" 686 no dash, and they are great to take to the range together.
As for the high prices of the used 617's, some of us prefer the older, pre-lock models to the newer ones. Nothing wrong with the new ones, just personal preference. Incidently, I also prefer the 6 shot 617 because the timing is the same as the 686.
