I'd go with the 621TS too, for sheer style it can't be beat though the inner workings are completely conventional.

The Videodyne I found recently is high on the list, great style and a chassis that's unlike anything put out by the majors, it all put together with screws and nuts, and not too precisely at that, which gives it the feel of a hand built prototype, the company was only around for a couple years as well.

I love Bakelite sets, the Philco 51-PT1207 is a favorite, it's one of a kind, one year only CRT makes it kind of special.

Portholes, any Porthole is cool but I particularly like the Raytheon 10DX24 with it's funky knobs and deco styling. It's chassis is way off the beaten path as well with an r.f. HV supply, slug tuner and 50B5 sweep circuit.
