I only have a few eyepieces and not that many observing hours behind my belt, but my favourite would have to be 5mm Delite, which is quite compact, very comfortable to look though, gives excellent views to the edge and has a reasonable FOV, so I can appreciate the heavens without tiring my eye(s).

Second place would be Delos 3.5mm as well as Nagler 13mm, because while Delos is optically magnificent within entire FOV, it is a quite large eyepiece, and Nagler, while very compact and with a generous FOV, optically it seems to lag behind the other two a little bit.

Oh yes, 2.5mm TOE, while optically possibly as perfect as humanly possible, it has a less comfortable eye relief which matters to me during longer observations. Mind you, this is with only 105mm of aperture, so floaters become noticeable too. This particular eypiece is probably better matched with larger apertures than my 105mm.
