Your expert input would be appreciated. I have only recently been getting into vintage watches.

It looks like a dial variation of the dramatically cheaper watch widely covered in this thread here:

https://forum.replica-watch.info/fo...-new-6542-budget-factory-option-by-ts-station

The 'bakelite' insert is not as good as the version sold by JTime. Definitely not worth $500 - are they serious?

Note also the terrible date wheel and comedy cyclops.

Looks like the same watch you can get from Andrew at TT, but with aged lume and about twice the price. There's about 4 or 5 variation of this watch with different bezels (coke or. pepsi) and dials (white/ black/ black with pink GMT text etc )

It's a completely different watch than the TS station. Different DW, hands, dial, insert, case, bracelet etc . Jtime can source this one for 398 currently. Mine came with the old 4 line syL dial, which was abandoned by TS when it went over to vintage power. The watch is good enough that guys are putting Vietnam dials in.

Seem a cartel / sillix with a improved dial and a cheap bachelite non the good one that sell kuvarsit..
The case back is like the other cartel /sillix without the step on the edge like the kuvarsit

Kuvarsit is selling the SYL dial 6542 for $548 - which is ridiculous

By comparison JTime is selling the same watch for £398.

(You read that right)

the comparison with jtime is not worth neither for price nor for quality.
as already written above it seems to be built with a $ 45 silix case

Junk - and that's not a 2836 clone.

I’ve long admired the white dial vintage GMT on JTime. Have you seen it to evaluate its quality?

no never seen mine had a black dial, if I remember correctly on "New 6542 - budget factory option by TS-Station" someone had posted photos with the white dial.
Alternatively, you can always think of buying a pan am ruby's dial with the degree of aging you want.

Plenty of pictures of it in this thread:

IMO, the white dial is not successful. it just looks cheap and nasty (the regular dial is not wonderful either). I put a white viet dial on mine. The only thing I kept was the hands, movement and case. And I'll probably replace the case soon.
