New 6542 - budget factory option by TS-Station

[Revolper]

I am particularly interested in the Datewheel. Would this fit an ETA 2893-2?

Can't wait to see high res pics of these when they come in. I think with a reluming of the indices this will be the 6542 budget piece to beat.

What puzzles me is the use of a hi-beat movement instead of a low beat GMT. I will still order one as soon as CNY is off though, haha. I wish they had a non-Serpico dial though (or a white dial... )

but TS is not a trusted dealer, because in the past there have been problems, do you know now it's verified now or in a future. and it's shipping with triangulation ??

 

[Hinclimincli]

It's not a trusted dealer and I don't know if it will ever be after the mess they caused. I take that money as a gamble, actually

Just to chime in for TS - I have ordered 7 or 8 watches from them over the last 12 months and they've always arrived perfectly, great service, very friendly sales and support staff.

​​​​​​Id say you're as safe as any order in this game from any of the other TDs.

Just my experiences.

Pussy Galore! the dissection

Lug holes are 1.3mm, take gen spec 2mms, crappy bracelet does not.

Case shape is kind of droopy compared to gen

I’ve seen better engravings on AAAs

Case fits gen spec VN dials

Paperclip bezel construction

The vintagized handset is dripping with dust! The watchsmith must have given them a dip in the ashtray before mounting.

The rare and beautiful S y L dial!!!

It’s not a bad dial for a rep, but I think the S y L branding jumped the shark.

Very good friend, you can take some pictures on your wrist with sunlight ?

What's the crystal size? Thinking about getting one of these and build a budget 6536.

Tks for sharing ! So the gen spec dial can be mounted on this rep? I read on other 3D your comment that was a little small in diameter the gen spec correct ?

 

[me&tedd]

Looks go so far. I think I will go for one of these.

 

[laoban_nicolas]

Thanks for the review. Thinking of building a Panam with a Yuki dual. That'd be a real winner for the price.

After it’s rebuilt, friend

Xtal is 30.1 mm outside dimension.

27.3mm fits well, it may be a little small for 27.8mm dials- but I don’t have one to try.

Nice one Hor-Fan , keep them coming! Are you planning to get a Pan-Am engraved back too? May I also ask, where did you get the dial? (Yuki?)

Would love to know that too

I picked it up m2m, it’s a Vietnam dial from the same source as phong- way better than yuki. Ruby is also a good source for these.

Thanks! Will go for a Ruby's

Since Vietnam dials are genspec (snap-on, no dial feet) how do you attach the dial to an ETA or other after-market movement?
