50mm Summilux ASPH vs. 50mm Summicron (v4 or v5)

I'm in the process of repurchasing M lenses after having sold them all a year ago. Even though I love both the 50 Cron v5 and the 50 Lux ASPH, I decided to repurchase the Cron first since this one came up for sale. Even though the 50 Cron v5 is no longer made in silver, they are available on used market for between $1.8K-$2.1K USD in mint condition. The brass exterior really makes this lens feel more premium than the lighter black version, otherwise they are identical. Balance is good when holding the camera. When the camera is sitting on a flat surface, it sits flat but is a bit easy to tip forward.
