Of the models you listed, in my opinion the number one choice would be the E11, followed by either the Noblet 40 or 27. These would be preferred over the Signets and the Normandy. You didn't mention the Noblet 45 but those are a good value also. Buffet Evette & Schaeffers are also very good instruments if you can find one that is not worn out...and that is the one I would get for my own kid (except for the fact that he is a drummer LOL).
If looking for a pro horn you need to be careful because if you get one really cheap it is likely to have worn out keywork and such. It is possible to come across a good one for a low price if you wait long enough and really keep your eyes open, but then should plan on putting another couple hundred bucks (minimum) into it. You could luck out and get one that doesn't need work but more likely it if it's priced real low it is going to need a rebuild.
