Something That I Had Never Noticed, in 1972 Brochure

Autavia Reference 1163 MH, in 1972 brochure, has the "stripes" on the minute recorder.

It looks like a Viceroy, except for the MH bezel and these stripes. It looks like an "Orange Boy", except that it seems to be red wherever the orange would be.

So what is this 1163 MH . . . perhaps it's the one the racer is wearing in the Viceroy ad (or perhaps it's the Art Department, working on the design)?
