WOW now those are very good questions but for many threads, not just one, about the having 1 million I would get my grail complication, minute repeater with moon phase, they usually come with a PC or tourbillon or both, now you are already between 500 and 800k, and of course a Nautilus is a must, the grail is the 5711P if you can get one, but a 5711 or 5712 in SS will do, and probably also a chrono, since you would have already PC and moon phase you could go for a chrono only complication, so 5070P or 5370P, and basically you have your million dollars right there, what also matters is what pieces you already have from other brands, though supposing one would have 1M only for PP I would suppose that person would have other watches, if not there are incredible watches outside of PP as well, for example the Lange Datograph, which by the words of the watch maker that some consider the best alive, Philippe Dufour, is the best chronograph in the world, though it is german;
Like De66 said take your time, there are plenty of threads here that will give you great info, and when you like a model just google it and you will find a great deal of reviews on great watch sites.

About manual vs auto, just look at a manual movement and an auto, you'll figure it out, I can suggest in manual Lange datograph again and any Patek chrono or chrono with PC and moon phase, then any auto you want on the other side, the first ones are a miniature world of art, the second ones often beautiful but don't arrive to the knees of the first ones.

Good luck
