The 2-series screen has already been mentioned. However, at f/8 it will still be difficult even with a 2-series. I believe what you really need:
1.  An OM-2S just in case you would want to use it in "Program."  ;-)
    It also has a uniquely pleasing shutter sound.
2.  An OM-4[ti] so you can use spot metering with
    aperture priority AE.
3.  An OM-3[ti] so you can use spot metering along with
    a uniquely pleasing shutter sound
4.  Keep the OM-1n as a piece of OM history plus it has mirror lock-up
    and a self-timer.

Of course, after all this you will be ready for the Zuikoholic "twelve-stop program" to deal with your addiction properly:

you can get the viewfinder to not black out by moving your head (your eye)
left, right, up, down very slightly....there is a distinct point where the
split-image is not blacked out.
