There is not a lot to work off of, the markers and hands are quite small, especially compared to a GMT or Sub.

Agree with the other comments about smaller markers and narrower hands compared to some of the other sport/tool watches.
The diving watches and Explorer II, watches where legibility in low light conditions are integral to the purpose of the watch, excel there.

Odd, but every time I look to see what date it is on my Daytona, oops. Anyone else make this mistake who owns a Daytona?

If lume is your thing...I’d say you might want to pick the right Daytona.
Here is an example of one I had years ago and never wanted for nighttime lume.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
