New 6542 - budget factory option by TS-Station

[Dan71]

Another curiosity:
the watch from kuvarsit (dial without the s&L ) have the same serial number but different last 2 numbers, same gap between the two.

Just arrived from kuvarsit

Obviously without the paper ..

I also have one coming from Kuvarsit. Is the bezel insert actually black and red? I always thought that all 6542s have Pepsi bezel insert.

Interesting, on all pictures it seems to look almost black. But happy to hear that it's actually a dark blue!

Yeah, mine coming from Kuvarsit looks very, very dark. I couldn't make up any blue shades whatsoever on their website nor on my QCs. I'll be patiently waiting and letting you guys know once it arrives.

On Kuvarsit's website it clearly states the bezel is black and red.

So does it on TS Station's site but in reality it's dark blue.

Alright, so I was checking on a dealer from our sister forum and guess what I found...

The best thing: USD268!!!

I am really really tempted to go for the albino. I don't even care it doesn't have the engraved case back... Jesus, $268 in the times we live in where almost any replica costs nearly $500 is so good!

I have already asked Toro if he can source one...

Oh hell yes bro, that's exactly my kind of vintage, not all scratched up and splotchy dial, lume and hands. And the lugs look considerably better than the Serpico Y Llano ones from TSWATCH. I'm in.

Yup, I'm in the same boat. I like the vintage design, not the beaten up look. Might end up with that albino, now I just need an excuse to tell my wife why do I have two watches that look exactly the same, next to each other in the winder, lol.

Yep, TS only had the Serpico y Laino dials as far as I remember.
