 I think that the one you have a photo of in your gallery was stripped and refinished at one point. The model 706 I have looks exactly the same as the U.S built 46-1201 with the extra dark walnut tone spray on the sides, and control panel, and the "Philcote" faux finish on the rest, I think it's either supposed to be a teak or a quarter sawn French walnut grain. The knobs and the grille cloth on the set linked to have also been replaced, the originals are of the same style as Philco "Hippo" knobs.
Regards
