The larger shutter dial of the TTL should also be an advantage, and since you do not have any other M6s, the fact that it rotates in the opposite direction compared to all previous Leica Ms should be no problem. On the other hand, some people have reported problems with fast battery consumption on the TTL. In the end, I doubt that any of this matters much. I would buy whichever I can find at the best price.
