What about a Mod 638, similar to the old Mod 38s and Mod 49s? Not everyone likes their humpback profile but they are also great for not snagging clothing like the old Centennials and the current Mod 640 is.

I have several Centennials and Bodyguards. I like them both, but we all have different tastes.
