Super rare 6542 GMT AKA Pussy Galore

[phillip ridley]

This is definitely not a watch I see everyday and lucky enough to work on.

This was an original owners watch until sold to the lucky owner which came with all the original box/papers and big logo bracelet. Unlike many of the 6542's, this still has the Radium bakelite bezel/insert which is fully intact which is cool since others usually have cracks due to how fragile they are.

At some point, it was clear that moisture entered the watch oxidizing the roulette date indicator and several other mechanical parts which I replaced.
Not only that, I noticed that the bakelite was ready to come off at any moment Needless to say, cleaned everything, secured the insert to the bezel, installed the appropriate 25-115 crystal and gave her the appropriate one last time look over.
