The SAGA: 

Maxi dials are so named due to the generous portion of luminous material acting as the hour markers. The Mk I was the first of the Maxi dials (duh), and the last sub to have the depth rating above “submariner.” Another charming characteristic of the Mk I is the zorro-like zigzag “S” in submariner.
