22BT
Is a lot rarer. If it was a full box set, you should have kept it. Some say only around 50 22Bs copped a tritium dial and apparently the 22A didn't sell out either.

I just didn't like it enough....
the financial consideration never interested me much As a matter of fact I had both a 22BT and a 22BL, since I had decided to collect all the "destros" available at the time I gave away (for a song and a dance) also a 26BT. My intention was to buy A model...
