Thanks Richard and Günter,

Choosing:

> Document>Settings>Fonts>Maths: Times Roman (New TX)

solved the problem. HOWEVER, \epsilon and \varepsilon *still* looks the same in 
the LyX preview.

Mathptmx is used for Times Roman by default. It is a stop-gap measure combining 
several fonts for maths.

Better support is gained with newmathtx: select 
Document>Settings>Fonts>Maths: Times Roman (New TX)

The \epsilon vs. \varepsilon problem is also solved when selecting the extended 
Times-Roman version "TeX Gyre Termes".
