    I would really like some help to identify an old Panasonic Walkman I had in 1992. It was most similar to the RQ-S35 from my memory, but I think it had the hold switch on the top edge. It had silver buttons on the edge for play/stop etc. Also had a switch for Dolby B (can't remember if it had other dolby formats - I don't think so). It didn't have any switches on the back and its shape was more rounded - like the RQ-S60 or S80. I have spent a long time looking at different pictures, but none of them look quite right. I really loved it when I had it, but unfortunately left it on the Tube in London once in the mid 90s and it was gone forever..

    Maybe Panasonic RQ-S1, S1D, S3, S4, S5, S6, S7.
    If it had ASC or similar switch there are also S11, S33, S55, S15, S35 (which you say it's not).
    Here is a page which can help, when you click on the model name you will see it's picture: https://walkman.land/table
