Aaaah, Baron, my friend.
You found a very ince PCG Chapter Ring Gilt 1675, my friend.

I love ot use mine when I travel in a different time zone.

As for the 6542, the bakelitte bezel is a real problem, but a nice after market will do the deal ,and allow you to wear your 6542 without any fear.

Interesting point on people starting their collections...
with a GMT master. My first sports Rolex was a 16700! Still miss it, in fact. Ross...
We should do a survey, Ross. Many started with a GMT.
As per a coincidence, I had exactly the same reference as my first " serious " watch. Best, Nicolas.
