Question on AC Date/Month Display

[locutus49]

This is probably a dumb question with an obvious answer, but I'll ask anyway.

You know how the Date, Day, and Month are digitally displayed on an AC like the 5205? Well, what is it called when this information is displayed radially on the subdials? Is it an analog display or some other term?

I personally prefer the digital displays as the other ones are hard for me to read at a glance. But I may be in the minority.

Thanks in advance.
