Yes, Breitling was my one and only chronograph. I found that I never really had a good reason to time anything and like you said th sub dials are a bit hard to see in some light.
I suppose this is what you would call an 'easy to read dial:

I had the "Emergency Mission" the more traditional chronograph/sub dials look which I prefered but the Transmitter elements are the same. basically by unscrewing the antena and pulling out the signal is activated on both models, its a international reckonized signal transmitted that would be picked up by any International Rescue service within its beacon range.
as an some added info to purchase this watch you, leastwise i, was made to produce my passport as proof of identy and sign a disclaimer which is held at breitling. basically you are liable for all costs in the event of a false activation of the watch!!!, battery changes are only done by Breitling themselves and you sign agreeing to returning the watch for service/battery change every 2 years if i recall. on the bright side should you actually activate your watch in a real emergency situation Brietling will replace/ repair the watch itself FOC. Its only in recent years civilians have been allowed to purchase this "Tool watch" previously a pilots license was required and took a court case by breitling to convince the authorities otherwise.
