If it's your only revolver, or your others are small carry revolvers, the 629 for its versatility.

If you have a whole slew of wheel guns and just want something unique, the 657.

That's just my $ .02. I don't know enough to know if the no-dash versions of any of those guns had problems to watch out for.

Barrel length would be a determining factor, too.

No dash 629 (P&R) would be my first choice

657 would be a close second

Since the only one of the three I own is a three inch 624, I suppose I have decided this a long time ago.
