Sanwa for me. I'm not sure what it is for you. It really is personal preference. Sanwa buttons are very sensitive, and only need a light touch to activate. I love it for that, and they feel great. Seimitsu's are also pretty sensitive and have somewhat more of a 'clicky' feel. There's also the advantage that Seimitsu buttons have transparent/translucent variants that look great.
As for snap-ins or screw-on's, it depends on the case you're using.
As for Happ parts, I don't mind them either. They're great for people who hammer the hell out of their buttons, but they need a big case to fit. (if you go custom, you most likely won't have a problem with that)

Sanwa or Semitsu or Happ buttons?
I am in a dilemma, which buttons should I get?
Sanwa or Semitsu?
Should I get the clear top or not? (this question I can answer myself eventually.)
Screw Ins or Snap Ins?
What are you gentlemen/ladies getting or got and why?
Some say this is a user preference...
Some say Sanwa is MORE sensitive then Semitsu (Not sure how true is this)
Thanks

I'd go for the screw in's. Unless your 100% sure your panel is going to be perfect the screw in's allow for a larger degree of error. Happ is cheap but their parts are bigger than their Japanese counterparts, so make sure you have the clearance for them.
