Mouse for CAD work

I need a new mouse at work.  I can't use the shitty Dell mouse any longer!  Any suggestions for a CAD mouse?  

 

I don't need a lot of extra buttons, but I REQUIRE an easy to click mouse wheel for panning.  It's going to be all about the mouse wheel.  I want the wheel to have a very nice tactile bump when scrolling, nicely textured, and easy to click.

G502? Even has the ability to unlock the scroll wheel to let it roll free.

 

G3258 V 860k (Spoiler: G3258 wins)

My dad works with CAD drawings for a living he uses a Logitech wireless mouse and seems to like it.

very cool!

 

But I'm only doing 2D work, so it might be overkill.

I'll have to check those ones out at my local electronics store.  I've seen them on display.

There was a CAD display at a convention I went to and it used a Logitech G600 (great mouse IMO). Don't know if CAD requires the scroll wheel and massive button arrangement of the G600 but I thought I would add it in here.
