Ski binding choice ?

So I’m looking at buying one of the three
Atomic Warden MNC 11 ($109) CAD
LOOK NX 12 Dual WTR ($104) CAD
LOOK SPX 12 Dual WTR ($142) CAD

I have my eye on the first two. The atomic would look great on my black and red scheme. However, how much better is a din 12 over a din 11? And also is it worth it to go full put and get the Look SPX 12?
I ordered a marker 11 tp, and it feels really cheap with all the plastic. I will be returning it.

hieght:5’9. Weight: 155-169lb. Boot: Lange SX 90 (326mm). Ski: atomic vantage 85 2018 (173cm

Out of those three I'd go with the Warden or SPX, the NX 12 will likely feel like a plasticy kid's binding as well to you.

If you spend a little more up front the and buy a 13 din aattack or sth it will last for 2-3 pair of skis and not need to be replaced as you get bigger or progress.

Pivots are also gonna be more than double the price of the bindings OP listed.

Warden 11s are probably the beefiest 11 DIN binding on the market, but Attack 11s are also a good choice.

Yeah, thanks. I needed up getting the atomic wardens 11. Comes with free mounting, matches my colour scheme and my ability since I’ll only ski around 2-3 times each season. Together my ski kit cost around 875$ CAD. I was trying not to go over 500$ in the beginning lol
