How many analog dials or indicators have we actually seen in Star Wars? The original Battlestar Galactica definitely had some.

Most prequel designs look too sophisticated compared to the OT. I thought the cockpit for Bail’s ship at least tried to bridge the gap.

There was a small display screen in the Falcon cockpit. I presume for the Navi computer? It’s seen (and heard) being used in ESB, but we never actually see what they’re looking at, so darned if I know where it actually is on the console.

Luke’s Landspeeder was intended to have a scanner display, and animation for tracking down Artoo was actually made but was cut. There was an image of it in the Art Of Star Wars book, IIRC.

Interestingly to see how the Space Shuttle cockpit got more glass over the years.
