I'm curious if your meaning of 'horizontal, heavy flywheel tuning knobs' has been understood correctly.
To me, the 10B set a standard for what a tuner should look like, and is iconic in appearance and many other ways. Prices are out of sight, though, and they are complex and prone to optocoupler failures.
I though by 'horizontal, heavy flywheel tuning knobs,' you meant the models where one adjusts a flywheel knob from side to side, as opposed to rotating it on a horizontal axis. If that is the case, the series of 20, 20B, 120, 120B, and 150 might be for you (these have scopes). Though not as highly regarded or prized as the 10B, some are good performers, particularly when updated and modified.
