I have had quite a few meters over the years, but not fallen in love with any of them except for a tiny Gossen Super Pilot, 40 years ago, that uses a now-defunct battery, but right now I have a Polaris (about the only time I use a meter is with strobes), and it's fine. But for carrying around, I bought an Android app named LightMeter, and for reflected readings it's spot on, so I don't bother to pack the Polaris, usually. Mostly, though, I just stick my finger up into the wind to get a reading, and use that.

I had been mostly using a Polaris digital meter and a Gossen Lunasix.
The Polaris broke, they sent me a "new" one, the spot attachment is basically unusable.
I just got a Gossen LunaPro SBC with a big spot attachment. It is wonderful. Although the calibration seems good I intend to send to QLM to have the spot attachment cleaned and the meter checked. Although I just started using it, I highly recommend the SBC.

I have a Sekonic L-398 but I decided to get a VC Light meter just so that I can attach it on the M3
