Note du spécialiste

Reference 6536/1 was launched in 1956, fitted with the chronometer version of calibre 1030, the dial featuring the white printed depth rating and gilt printed "Submariner".

The present watch is distinguished by its beautifully aged dial, wonderfully harmonizing with the gilt printing and the cream colour of the luminous numerals and hands. The case, most likely never polished, impresses by its full proportions and the well-defined fluting of the lugs.
