    The 1702 is a nice monitor. It's made by JVC and was used as a professional video display (for video editing).

    Second place is the original 1902/1080. Those do composite, Y/C, digital and analog RGB so they are very flexible and have almost as good a picture as the 1702. These can be spotted by the flat convex bezel that follows the curve of the tube in the front. Some of the early 1080's have "AMIGA" in the original rainbow color logo in the lower left.

    The rest of the CBM monitors were a crap shoot. Made by different manufacturers at different times, most are junk Magnavox or Phillips designs that were given to the cheapest bidder at the time. You can't tell by the model numbers.
