I can only speak to what Colt did in North America, but I don't think he did any "all the way thru" if you mean from design thru construction to opening day. The 9 days he spent at Old Elm or similar times at Ancaster, Hamilton, and The CC of Detroit are the max on one visit. Most of the courses he never saw beyond the raw land. As mentioned before The CCD is the one course where he got to see the original 1911 product completed in 1914, (if not also in 1913). Because of the 1915 US AM and the egos of the members involved he got a chance to come back, revise, add yardage (horrors!), and tweak bunkering. Albeit the last with the on-site return of Ross to confirm.
That golf course no longer exists as it was entirely wiped out in 1927 when the City decided to run a 100' ROW thru the course. The club bought contiguous property to the south and Alison did a new design that was/is more of a multi directional course than Colt's out and back east west loop. That golf course has perhaps the longest continuous supervision by a design team as Alison came back to Detroit thru 1929-31. His right hand, on-site supervisor for construction,, and CA&M American Partner Lynn Edward Lavis stayed on at The CCD as property manager thru the early 1950s. It wasn't until Trent Jones came in an changed things for the club's second major that the CM&A influence wasn't on-site daily. Lavis and his family actually lived in the 3rd floor of the clubhouse year around, so on-site takes on an entirely new dimension when you consider that.
