For me, of all my watches, I still the Tudor GMT does the best job. The green lume glows, the uncluttered dial is easy to see, I don't have trouble telling which hand is which thanks to the big snowflake hour hand, and my old eyes never need to squint to read the time..

Give me some of your picks!

I would’ve totally agreed with you up until the other night. I was on a mid night shift and on a break I took my GMT off and put it on its side with the face visable. After a power nap took a look at the watch in the dark and had no idea what time it was at first glance and not because I just woke up. A few of the hands looked mighty similar..... IMO I feel like my 16710 was much easier to read at first glance.
