6534 dial
I just picked up this 6534 ,from 1958, with the roulette date wheel. The dial is pretty rough, would you leave it as is, or find a replacement? Am I correct that although not a rare watch, original dials are difficult to find?[IMG]

Sorry but this is an OBVIOUS redial - for starters look at the font on the word "Date" - not good!

Agree with Kippyhunt. Dial is obviously reprint and in a bad condition. Attached my 6534 original condition for your comparison. I beleive getting a correct original dial would be a very tough job.

They will soon. All of the range is increasing in $ so I can only assume these will be next. For me, it’s my birth year watch so I’m not selling it. I love it. |

I have 6534 bought in 1959, used a fair bit and glass has scratches and black dial looks aged. Any idea how I can get about restoring this?
