Sequence: Pre-Viceroy; Orange Boy; Viceroy Promotion
In Response To: Yes it's in the 72 Catalogue & Viceroy advert. ()

My best estimate as to the sequence is as follows:

  1. "Pre-Viceroy" . . . meaning the ones that looked identical to the ones later offered in the Viceroy promotion . . . these had either an MH or a Tachy bezel.
  2. Orange Boy . . . same as the pre-Viceroys, but the red accents are orange (and we have the stripe on the minute recorder)
  3. Viceroys sold in the Viceroy promotion . . . we all know about these!!
