I like my glass measuring cups but the printing on them has really disappeared over time. Does anyone have a measuring cup that they love?

Basically pyrex spun out of Corning Glass, enshitified and use soda lime glass (shit) while Corning retained PYREX which is still high quality borosilicate glassware (often with a blueish tint).
