Rolex 1675 Pan-Am [Pic Heavy!]

[TheSociety]

Hey guys,

This project was about 3 months in the making but I finally got all the parts together for the build. There are only a few pictures of the gen 1675 pan am floating around - some from John Goldbergers book "100 superlative Rolex" and the others from a vintage Rolex meet up from a couple years ago of what appears to be the same watch - so I guess we are lead to believe there is only 1 in existence thats been confirmed. Well now there are two [emoji13] I have my own sources for parts so I have listed them as my own parts below. The rest are gen Rolex [emoji1317] I love wearing leather straps but ended up finding a stunning condition first series big logo folded jubilee so it's on there as well.

Specs

TheSociety 1675 PCG case
TheSociety 1675 PanAm dial
Gen Rolex GMT Cal 1575
Gen Rolex GMT handset
Gen Rolex GMT small arrow hand
Gen Rolex turquoise / raspberry super fat font insert
Gen Rolex 5.6mm crown / tube / stem
Gen Rolex bezel assembly
Gen Rolex Tropics 116 crystal
Gen Rolex 6251H big logo jubilee
Hodinkee distressed leather strap

Gen pics for reference

And now the build progress

And the final result! [emoji13][emoji7][emoji41]

And a wristie!

Stunning .... beautiful .... amazing. Those crownguards are just simply over-the-top gorgeous, beautiful casework - and amazing everything else. That´s a 1675 to treasure and behold for a lifetime. :thumbsup:

I had a case maker made it to my specs and then I further repolished the case when it got to me. Comparing to gen I would say it's 95% there more or less. Wear it for a couple years it'll probably be indistinguishable from a gen PCG case.
