MCC2 subdials are cool, in an eclectic sorta way (not my photo).

GO PMC-XL - This one has both sub-dials and a "super-dial"
Re: In praise of sub-dials: basic, to cool, to the outstandi
PAM 24A - this design was absolutely made to go with patina.
Re: In praise of sub-dials: basic, to cool, to the outstandi
PAM 233 - AM/PM indication integrated. Really cool.
Re: In praise of sub-dials: basic, to cool, to the outstandi
JLC Master Perpetual - busy dial, yet still somehow legible. Plenty of sub-dials here.
Re: In praise of sub-dials: basic, to cool, to the outstandi
Calibre de Cartier - this design was great. Textures, levels, and finishes made it really legible. Unfortunately, I don't have a good macro of it. But here's an example of how it was made to be legible in low light.

JLC MC GMT - GMT sub-dial. Legible based on the style of hand. You'd think it's too cramped to fit 24 hours in there, but it was great.

IWC Spitfire 3878 - still one of my favorites. Great use of finishing contrasts between dial (sunburst) and sub-dials (concentric). Hand design is harmonious with the style of the watch.
Re: In praise of sub-dials: basic, to cool, to the outstandi
Tag Heuer Carrera RS2 - one of the funnest implementations of chronograph and running second sub-dials out there. Wouldn't mind me a non-PVD version of this watch.
Re: In praise of sub-dials: basic, to cool, to the outstandi
Patek 5726 - Moonphase and 24-hr indicator
Re: In praise of sub-dials: basic, to cool, to the outstandi
Patek 5980 - not the most creative or fine finishing of the sub-dial, but the presentation of the chronograph is unique in design, in that it really retains compactness well.

I want an Amvox someday.

This ^ is probably the sexiest subdial setup

Ultra bad ass thread, Mike. Incredible posts all.
I like the utilitarian yet perfect subdials you find on a Bund...
Love the day/night indicator on my old Speedie Mark, among other aspects of the Lem 5100.
And I found the panda dial on my vintage Precimax to be just what the doctor ordered.
This thread is approaching classic status.
