Which leads me to think my insert was one from 59 on, made with less stronger compound and not with the strontium what they called back

I haven't had it serviced at rolex It's been serviced running flawlessly Have been thinking about putting it into Rolex but don't want it to come back with any service parts lol Service paper would be a nice thing to add!

Yes your right from what I've heard After the Radium radiation scare, ROLEX recalled many 6542 to rectify the problems quietly. Part of the processes taken was to relume the Bakelite with weak Pm147 or Tritium lumes. Pm147 has been around from the 50's so that would support your theory of Rolex usin

I have used a Geiger but it's not the best although not top of the range

So here's my 6542 1959 Serial# 482*** Original Bakelite rare all red mini gmt hand Mirror glossy gilt dial

1. GMT MASTER 1675 1977 JORDANIAN ARMY 2. GMT MASTER 1675 1970 LONG E 3. GMT MASTER 6542 1959 (all original)
