Rolex 6542 Guinness

[tripdog]

I was asked to build a 6542 GMT, but the guy wanted a black Bakelite insert - making it a a fantasy model. The 6542s were only ever produced with the red and blue 'Pepsi' inserts (of which there are a many variations in the color and tone, due to ageing etc).

I wasn't sure what this would end up looking like, but it looks like Rolex screwed up - it looks damn good.

Pretty sure it would have been nicknamed the Guinness GMT too.

No gen parts on this one, with a HR A2836 GMT.

Thanks for looking !

The white second hand fits perfectly the color scheme. I'm surprised Rolex never thought of doing one like this.

The Cotton Candy 6542 GMT, an incredibly rare piece - no examples are known to exist - but I could do one, just for you.
