According to this recommendation page [0], there are quite a few monitors with "PWM-free (flicker-free) WLED backlight". The list includes many affordable mainstream choices.

I heard some monitors may revert to PWM below a certain brightness threshold, but assuming the information on that page is accurate, not getting PWM-free monitor is probably a sub-optimal purchase decision.

http://geizhals.eu/?cat=monlcd19wide&xf=103_flicker-free#xf_... lists a LOT of displays that are supposed to provide a flicker-free viewing experience, and you can also filter for other technical properties to your heart's content. (Caveat: parts of that site are machine-translated to English - but that doesn't affect the rigor that went into curating the original data).
Looks like a good resource, thanks!
