you have to be careful when comparing the real-life cockpits to their virtual counterparts, paying close attention to the number on the end of the 737. for example, the -800 i believe is an all-glass cockpit. another good example is that the b747-300 and below were not glass cockpits (im pretty sure its -300 and below).

737-100/200 were all analogue. They are often called the "jurassics"  ;D

737-300 was the first series equipped with a Smiths industry FMC and an EFIS flight deck, then followed the 400/500. These are the "classics", strangely...

The Next Gen 737's are "all glass cockpits"

The 747-400 is the only series with a glass cockpit, so Beefhole is correct.

So the the result is that the real interior cockpit is similar of the real one default b737_400,Perhaps what I saw(picture) was the 737-800 its has a nice digital display instead those things that looks like a old clocks.
