we have two different problems ....
1) if the " white " dial is original or not
2) if the case has been sold to Pan-Am or not.
so at the moment I know that at least one " white " dial for 6542 has been produced by Rolex ( the one posted by Stefano Mazzariol in his blog ,
that however doesn't come from the States and has a matt finish ).
in the past Rolex dials were usually produced in batches no lower than 10 pieces, but sometimes ( as for the "white " 6205 ) even in 1 or 2 pieces only.
the other question is the case : maybe Pan-Am got some GMT or maybe not :
untill we can't find a case " confirmed " we have just a sort of "self-delivered"
watch .. something like the back-engraving : < Marcello is very skinny > ( while
my weight is around 260 lbs. ) .. with the very same collecting value.
