It was a serious comment, I’m guessing most people here don’t just buy a watch to check the time, they buy it because they like how it looks as well, so if I bought a watch I like would rather be able to see it properly than buy one which maybe I don’t like as much but is easier to read with less than perfect vision.
Ive worn glasses for short sightedness since I was about 14, switched to varifocals when I started to struggle to see the dash in the car, had also started taking my glasses off to read which had become rather annoying. If I was only long sighted I’d have laser surgery rather than faffing around with having to have glasses on and off.
Only watch I’ve bought purely for legibility was a Casio with backlight as knew I would need to check it regularly in the early hours when on a trip.
Cant add anything as far as legible watches as my best watch for a quick glance is probably my 2254 but that’s been mentioned a couple of times and that wasn’t why I bought it.
