I use a 3DConnexion CADMouse pro wireless: https://3dconnexion.com/uk/cadmouse/ and I really like it. It fits my hand well and works in wired, bluetooth , or with a wireless usb transmitter. It's got a huge middle mouse button which was the main draw for me.

The downsides are that it seems to have a unique bluetooth firmware that crashes bluetoothd on Linux . I haven't been able to figure it out. It also has this fake "inertial" scrolling which I hated at first but now I quite like it.
