The present watch is an extremely charismatic sought-after example of an early GMT-Master model reference 6542. It features a highly attractive aged brown dial. Amongst collectors, this type of dial is now called "tropical". This designation is derived from the colour of the lacquer which over the years has changed from black to a golden light brown. The watch is furthermore preserved in overall very good original condition.
