The U.S. Nighthawks
This is probably the most common Nighthawk model sold in North America and to some extent, in the U.K.
You can easily identify by the Nighthawk text on the dial. Non-U.S. Nighthawks do not have this text. The U.S. Nighthawk also sports full lumed indices and framed Arabic numerals.

subefotosThe Japanese Nighthawks
Japan market Nighthawks are identified by the "Made in Japan" text located on the dial, at the 8 o'clock position. It's a bit too small to see, but it appears on large photos. JDM Nighthawks are the Radio Controlled versions and can synchronize the time with LF (Low Frequency) radio time signals on long wave. Alas, the Radio Controlled Nighthawks lack the 24-hr GMT scale found on the garden variety Nighthawks.
The easiest way to tell a JDM Nighthawk is by the "W.R. 20 Bar" text on the dial.

You get a dedicated GMT subdial, alarm, three main city times (London, Paris & New York) and perpetual calendar capability.

imagEuropean Nighthawks
These Euro Nighthawks are also Radio Controlled but differ from their Japanese counterparts by the lack of "W.R. 20 Bar" text. In its place, the text "Sapphire" is printed, indicating the use of sapphire crystals, obviously. European Nighthawks have the model number starting with "AS".
