Hey Amir! That is a 1675 GMT from '68. The "custom" piece is the original red/blue insert that faded to what is known as a "fuchsia insert" due to the red turning a purple/fuchsia color. This happened on inserts from '68/'69 I believe.

Now I’m curious, what is under some of the watches? Salesforce business card?

Awesome mix of modern and vintage btw.

HAHA, good eye! So I have this personal collecting philosophy where I get a watch for myself when I have a life event. So each watch has something under the cushion to signify that particular life event...a couple have a piece of the blanket my kids came home in. The business card is to commemorate a promotion at work, which is where Salesforce comes into play, :)

That $75,000 will feel like peanuts in a couple months and seem like the best money you ever spent in another year with the way things are going (I don't forsee it changing). I made the jump months back and my only regret is not buying sooner. There just isn't another watch that scratches that itch.

That’s really cool!! And further highlights how Rolex is not just a watch but rather a status and an accomplishment trophy
