The viewfinders of the KX and the K1000 are vastly different, the former having match
needle and showing shutter speed and aperture (via a Judas window) shown

The KX is identical to the K1000 mechanically except for the addition of
DOF preview and self-timer, as in the KM, plus mirror lock-up. The KX
has different electronics: A silicon photodiode meter instead of the CdS
cell meter of the KM/K1000.
The meter of the KX is slightly more likely to fail, in my experience,
than that of the KM/K1000. Mechanically they're all identical in terms
of reliability.
