Christie’s dates both case 145'159 and case 145'111 to circa 1955. Other published dates conflict: a Phillips lot essay gives 1953; Christie’s’ 2016 essay and Monaco Legend’s 2019 catalogue give 1954; Christie’s’ 2017 essay, Revolution and Nomisma use 1955; a 2023 Phillips article gives 1956; Monochrome gives 1954–1957. Rolex identifies ref. 6541 with 1956. This spread leaves the 6543’s production span unsettled.

Cases 145'111 and 145'159 document two watches; the published examples give no full case-number range or production count.
