The tractor that looks the best will look good. The other 2 will actually get some work done for you - better hyd, 3-point, pto, tranny, etc. Good paint doesn't get any work done.

Which model of 600 is it? The middle number of that machine will tell you which options it has; a 660 would be a terrific tractor with 5-speed, live pto, and other good features. Now a 640 would be worth less, with a 4-speed, no live pto, and less features. And SoS trannies are worth 1/2 of what a good 5-speed is worth - while they work well when working, they cost a lot more to repair & maintain and people shy away from them - all trannies need some repair every many thousands of hours.
