I don't own any of the three in the original post. I once had a model 52, but a guy at my range offered me a stupid amount of money for it, and I sold it on the spot. It is arguably the finest semi-auto ever made by S&W, but I considered it a single purpose gun for serious bullseye shooters, which I am not, and I moved on. The three guns are very nice, but they wouldn't be the first three on my list. I honestly don't know where I would start now if I began collecting today because I've never been good at picking my favorite child. Based on the premise of this thread, there are no wrong answers.
