Gmt 6542

I have two concerns here, first the bezel insert is a fake, which is declared by the seller, but more importantly he is claiming a cal 1030 and shows a photo of a 1030 movement.

I may be wrong but I do not think this is correct for a 6542. I think it should be a cal 1035. Can anyone pls confirm???


seller adrian-tony ( 145)

A Rare Gentleman Rolex GMT- Master 1958 in Very good condition no Crown Guard .

. The Ref Number: 6542 and serial Number:427***.

Guaranteed Genuine

The case is in great condition No rust or corrosion.

The diameter of the case is 37 mm without the winder and 47 mm with the luges.

The bezel is a beauty, pleasenote, aftermarket is made to look like original bezel.

Blaine, are you saying this because the coronet is NOT a "Bart Simpson" coronet?

The low BIN price is appropriate. Lugs are overpolished also....

Michael, as we know this isn't the original dial that came with this watch.
and you bring up the cornet, i personally think it is to tall and the cornet hole
i could drive a truck though it. AND>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
the relationship of the chapter ring versus the position of the 24hr mini, hmmm?
also the lack of the dash between oyster perpetual.
at best this is a very uncommon service dial

the 3 MOST INPORTANT THINGS of the 6542, this watch has 2 strikes

cheers
