Hi all :)

Just bought 1 month ago a 6536 from Ts Station (non TD here)

I didn't find any TD selling a vintage hand made 6536 like this.

Here the watch :

Chris from Ts station was reactive and shipping delay are very good for France.
They send QC pictures before shipping.

The quality seems very good.

That looks really good for a starting point. There aren't any other good options, outside of getting a Vietnam case, so it's nice to have this - especially being 38mm case size. There is a lot of dial space between the chapter ring and the rehaut, due to the way they printed the dial. I personally would work on getting a replacement dial for it. I would also take off the rep band and get a nice handmade Martu leather strap, or get a Vietnam 7206 rivet. Martu does amazing work with her leather bands and they are very inexpensive for such high quality. I would also do the Hillbilly plating mod that was discussed in the 6542 thread to brass the bezel and maybe soften the sharp case edges and add some bevels. It's a rabbit hole that can suck you in, for sure!

It looks really nice as is, though, so while you are gathering parts I would have no problems wearing it and enjoying it.:)

I'd pick up the 6536 gilt dial available from Ruby and age (or replace) the strap. That should make a world of difference!
