I have sets with different colored front panels and different shaped meters that seem to cover the whole period . I purchased my sets from the late sixties until the late seventies from all over. I havnt had problems with different arrangements of different valves.
That 19 set in your tank appears to have the post war leads fitted .The wartime leads had a heavy braided sleeve .

I believe the 19 set was kept in production after the war . I have unboxed a brand new 19 set , never issued , what is interesting is, the B set was never fitted to this new set . The B set section was just blanked off .

I do have a Royal Armoured Corps manual dated 1963. The 19 set is detailed in the manual along with the C42 set . Mike
