Don't really care. Just want best legibility. There's enough color elsewhere.
I like the turquoise colour on the Casio W-86 electroluminescent

EL and Indiglo is ALWAYS a welcome addition for me on any watch!

They're really practical. One of my first cell phones used that reflective display too. Kind of remind me of all the hologram products they cranked out in the 80s. But I think on some watches like the gold Timex T80 makes them look a little garish, maybe because it looks like a cheap gimmick was added to an otherwise elegant looking digital. On resin digitals they look good though.
Damn I think this post has inspired my watch choice for today.
