I have a M6 0.85 and a Summicron 35 Asph. (But I hope I'll get some other
lenses.)
I am quite happy with the results I get from my leica combo.

The 35 mm lines are not very comfortable in the 0.85 finder. The comfort will
much be greater with a 50 mm (more space around the lines).

My choice would be :
  M6 0.72 --> 35 mm
  M6 0.85 --> 50 mm
