  13. Rolex 6542 GMT Build List and Advice

    I had thought that perhaps there may be a work around by swapping the crystal to the plastic lens..but from the sounds of it , this isnt the case and not as easy as it sounds..

     

    My whole motivation for wanting to do this build is your bezel and insert JoeyB.  I just love them Bakelite look and want one so badly.  I thought that getting the bezel to fit would be easier than shaving CG's, etc on another style case.

     

    If I was to buy one and send it to you, would you be able to work your magic to see if we can solve this issue? @JoeyB?

    Update:  Heard back from William at Tiger.  they are onto V4 of the 6542 case with the sapphire crystal lenses.  will find out if these are pressed or glued.

    Tiger also offers a vintage style rivet bracelet but they are out of stock atm.  

    just need to source a dial to fit the dg 3804 movement and the bezel from JoeyB if he still has .

     

    Just heard back from Tiger...that was fast..

     

    The crystals are pressed in on the V4 cases   they are just waiting on parts for the vintage style bracelets.

    Thanks for all the info and the time you put in. This has become my current obsession.

    Mine as well!!  Just love the 6542's!!  

     

    I am going to buy the Tiger case..I assume that this is V3  can anybody confirm this...since this thread is old as dust...Has any of you guys worked with the recent edition of the Tiger cases yet?

    http://www.tiger-concept.com/6542-watch.html

    @JoeyB  Has it been confirmed that your bezels and inserts will fit these cases as of yet??  If so, I will be in touch ASAP!    Any chance you sell the dials as well for the DG Movements?

    Thanks for your help guys!!

     

     

    Oh on another note  I contacted Yuki about his 6542 case sets and he is asking 800.00 us for them !  That is a bit more than I was expecting.
