Croque monsieur for buffet style service?

How would you present a croque monsieur sandwich for a buffet style service? It would be for about 30 people, no oven salamander on site but heat lamps and possibly blow torches could be available.

I want to avoid getting the bread getting soggy by pre-saucing as much as possible. I was thinking have the sandwiches built and under the heat lamp, bain marie of bechamel, sprinkle gruyere on top, then torch and serve... thoughts?
