EIZO FlexScan S1703.
 https://www.eizoglobal.com/support/db/files/manuals/FlexScan/S1703/Manual-EN.pdf

It supports Sync-on-Green, so connecting "9. Monochrome output"
and "3. Monochrome Ground" signals on the VS3100 video connector
to VGA Green (pin 2) and Green Return (pin 7) just works.

Note the successor model "S1703-A" doesn't support Sync-on-Green.

Other Sync-on-Green monitors would also work (as PlayStation 2).
