It is a 6542, not a 1675. Hmmm!

Definitely better pictures are in order.

For starters, the dial is refinished and the caseback is "toast." The bezel looks like an aftermarket replacement too. Not much good going on with this vintage Rolex.

The coronet being so off centered on the crown seems odd too.

Also has the 1036 in a 1958? Thought they had gone to 106x sometime in '56?
