Rolex GMT MASTER 6542.

Apr 19, 2024,09:27 AM
 

With all these posts on the new Tudor Black Bay 58 GMT, let's see the one which at the origin, The Mother of them all, the Rolex 6542. 







Ok, now we see where Tudor borrowed the idea of the gilt insert and dial. 

I also wonder if Tudor will take the risk to go for a Black Bay 54 version, with a smaller case ( 37 mm ) which will be even closer to the 6542... 

Best,

Nicolas

while the Tudor looks good (at least from the pics) you can’t beat that 6542, it looks great. HAGWE

Went past my Tudor AD

yesterday and they anticipate they will have the GMT in 2 weeks, so I will then be able to judge 😀

Cool. Keep us posted.

It’s truly special. The dial. The bezel. The patina.

So hard to choose “the crown”.

But this one would be in competition in any collection.

;) Yes!

I am not usually a fan of gilt-dial Rolexes, generally always preferring their matte dial successors. But that one? Oh my, I love it!

A glorious piece.
