Bias aside! :)
I think that from all the watches that you have mentioned, the AP's are the best choice. I think that the 15305ST #1 (the open skeleton) is the safest bet when it comes to re sale. I think that the other "novelty" ROO while fun, does not have the charm of the original 42mm offshore (personal opinion). As far as the hublot's are concerned I think that there is a new model by Jay Z that will hold its value well if not increase as it is limited, might be hard to find.... check it out though.
Go for the 15305ST, wears bigger than 39mm as do all AP's and by far the nicest to look at. Panerai just don't do it for me.
Good luck with your purchase and let us know how it turned out.

15305..
I know this is a rare and hard to find piece, but since it's technically not a LE, does anyone know how many they have made or will make? I suppose they will keep making as long as their is demand, but curious if they are making 2k, 5k, or 30k pieces.
While I have no absolute information, I would speculate
There are less than 2000 total Openworks produced at this point between the steel and gold models. It is definitely a limited production piece. As for your other thought that 15305 looks like it wears larger than 39mm, I completely disagree. I have had it...
