Apologies, ;-(
I was working from memory and should have checked my facts before
engaged typing finger. ;-)
My Rolleilux is satin silver. It has two positions on the bayonet mount
marked by one and two red dots. One position is for use on 6x6 cameras
and the other for 4x4. Looking at Prochnow, the only difference between
the 4x4 and 6x6 versions is the colour of the leather case; grey and
brown. My leather case has a male bayonet keeper which turns to a 4x4
and 6x6 position so that what ever camera the hood is set for, it will
then fit securely into the case in correct alignment.
In Rollei Report 2, Prochnow does show painted prototypes of the
Rolleilux
I hope this is now accurate and helpful.

The 4x4 and 6x6 Bayonet 1 have different 12 o'clock positions due to the
closer lens centres on the 60mm compared to 75mm lenses. The Rolleilux
that I have has a two position bayonet marked 6x6 and 4x4 (changed by
twisting the hood position). I do not know if Rolleiluxs were made
specifically for the Baby bayonet in grey or if they were available in
grey with dual bayonet position (which would also fit the grey 'cords
and 'T's) and black which would match the black post war baby and
majority of Bay 1 TLRs.

I've only seen the Rolleilux in Bayonet 1 form, but in two flavours -
standard, and for the grey Baby.

Question: Was the Rollei meter hood with the little fold-out Gossen
selenium meter ever made for Bay II (3.5 E & F)?
