Thanks bro! I canceled that and built the 6263 purple prototype instead I also got every part needed to build an all gen minus mid case 6263 big red! That one hopefully soon!

Big Red? :blink: Can't wait for that one! Service dial or factory original?

I'm thinking it's a Swiss only or a snug red service dial (all serif font) I've only seen non-serif service dial before - this one has big serif fonts

It doesn't just tell time. It tells history.

Do you want to share how your case maker machines these cases? Are the machined with a CNC mill or lathe or made / finished by hand?

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!

By looking at the case I would have to say it it by both. Machined then finished by hand. His watchmaker does an amazing job on his builds. They look amazing. Nicely aged.
