My experience is different.

When I am at the train station I can have an immediate idea of what time is it just looking at the analog clocks around (they are digital displays mimicking analog clocks) even if I can't read the numbers from afar.

Digital clocks are harder for me because I have to parse the information: is that a 6, 8, 9, or zero?

It doesn't make much difference in the end, bit having to actually read the number forces me to be precise and I can't rely on intuition.

The more I age, the more my vision deteriorate, the more I find analog clocks easier to read.
