I have a 24 Pan and think very highly of it...I've chosen to stay with 1.25 inch eyepieces and it has one of the widest field of view available for that size eyepiece. I like this eyepiece a lot and it spends a fair amount of time in my scope.
On the other end, I have a 7 mm Pentax XW...it is another eyepiece that I think quite highly of...although it does not get as much scope time most nights due to seeing...I reckon a 10 mm Pentax would be pretty good but I have not tried one myself.
I do have an 11 mm T6 Nagler which I am fond of but I like the look (color or lack of color) of the moon and planets through the Pentax just a little bit more...it is splitting hairs a bit I think but the Pentax seems to be a bit "cooler" in color (I've not had enough viewing time to describe it any better but I do see a difference)...but on the otherhand if not moon/planet viewing I prefer the Pan and Naglers...
I'm not sure I am helping you much...I don't think there is a great deal of difference eyepiece to eyepiece at the top end of town (my opinion they are all pretty good) and I would encourage you to look through a few of your identified candidates before you purchase if you can...
