Is there a recepie on how to build this rolex? Cant find it as a rep to buy anyware. Looks like it could work with a rep of tudor black bay 58 to start with, right?

You can search for 6538 in the forum, especially the sales posts. Most have a list of parts used to build the watch.
The Tudor case is hugely different to the Rolex. It would make an interesting project watch to build a hybrid modern/vintage Tudex 6538 homage, but would look a distant relative to a gen Rolex.
You may be able to source a cartel (JKF/BP) 6538 rep. Try Marvellous Replica - it would only cost you $100 or so with shipping. These are nice enough out of the box or modded, but lack the most eye-catching feature of a gen, the negative printed gilt dial which gives the dial its lovely shimmering markings.
https://forum.replica-watch.info/for...17-1665-series (you'll need to email M and specify the model, it's not in that listing but is included in the deal. I've had a couple of them.)
Helenarou also does the 6538 as a higher end custom build. It'll cost between $500 - $600 plus but is a superior package. https://www.helenarou.com/40mm-size-wat40.html
