Visually appealing vintage turntables?

As much as I care about sound over cosmetics in a turntable, its fun to look at the ones that look nice.

I love modern looking vintage turntables, the lighter wood finish gets me every time.

I just started in home audio, and I'm not sure which companies other than Bang & Olufsen that are well known for their looks.

Post turntables you find to be appealing!
 
I love the look of the AR's and the Thorens.

My AR XB doesn't look nearly this nice (yet), though it sounds AMAZING and I'm still awaiting my Thorens TD 160.

I'm really digging the Thorens, I've never seen a turntable that small that I find appealing.
 
30 year old turntable-

Here is my 30 year old Transcriber when I unpacked it 3 weeks ago. Been listening to it every night since then.

Wow, now that is cool!
 
How about a Sony TTS-3000A with custom base & wood tonearm.

This is probably going to be one of my favorite posts, as I would get to see some great vintage TTs.

I will post some of mine later, a JVC QL-Y55F and QL-Y66F.

Cheers
