Tell ya what, I'll trade you a half dozen different Sub bezels for that Donerix 6542. Hey, one of them HAS to fit, right??

Take a look at the Donerix thread about building a 6542. That's the route I'd take for a 6538.

I recall Donerix built a 6542 and he dealt with the wokky rehaut using sandpaper and got a killer nice result.

Not "inside" but rather "under". The dial is mashed up against the backside of the rehaut. There's a tiny bit of overlap there. Most people don't realize how thin these things are. This is a 6mm crown we're looking at, before its pilgrimmage to UbiLand for a Brevet swap.

Shallower than a bombshell blonde's personality. The 6538 is a little deeper. Not much.

Yeah that's how those old bezels stick on there, and also explains how they get lost all the time!

Nice find Japanic, those typically go for around $1,000. I got one for a 6538 build in that condition for slightly less. I've still got that coin edge 6536 aftermarket bezel if anyone wants to take measurements and replicate it.

The "E" is back! The "E" is back!

I just kill myself sometimes.

Am I the only one that sees something wrong with your dial?

Thanks for the alert. I posted a warning and suggestion in the sales thread for people to pull their funds back if possible, until he shows up again and explains himself. He's not logged on since 9/4. Not good.

What is the user name? Who's selling?

I just had a look... can you point me to what you're seeing?

Remember a standard Sub case is approx 40mm and a vintage Sub case is smaller. I found the bezels from CWP or Natalie are good. And Natalie's are plated brass now.

Man that Heuer is mondo sweet. Sooooo drool worthy.

When I travel I always bring my MBW 1665. It's loads of fun to mess with people's minds. You know those little plastic trays you have to put your stuff in for the xray? If you "forget" and wear a watch into the scanner and it beeps, then you get to take your watch off and throw it into the tray from where you're standing. And if you miss and it clatters and bounces all over the place and falls on the ground? Even better. Take that, you miserable overpriced piece of stainless steel! Jaws will drop. Trust me.

All hail the MARINE MASTER MEGADOME!

WOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! What a beauty! I'm in a chocolate mood today.

Magnificent! Absolutely magnificent. I've never seen a finer Black Lung my friend. Welcome to an extremely small brotherhood.

What a great build! Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

I'm thinking that looks like a killer place to test a watch....

If all else fails use that extra thickness to your advantage and mill an angle into the "case" side so it looks like a 702.

Oh, did you think I meant another kind of "big pumpkins"?? Crawling underneath a 1,723 lb pumpkin ... definitely Not Safe For Work The eventual winner was 1,287 lb. Then they ate the guy. He just looks like he's celebrating.

Wow, I didn't know the Internet allowed trades. Here's a Pam you might be able to trade for.

You might have to pop off the crystal to get a good shot of that.
