Last GMT II serial before going ceramic?

Just curious, can someone please let me know what was the last serial of the GMTII (Black, Coke, Pepsi) before going ceramic? Was it the "Z" serial?

Thanks!
Randy

I believe it was the V-Serial (2008). I need to check my records on a few of those I've sold to see if it's possible on the M-Serial (2007).

M was the last i think. Late Z9xxx and M serials also came with the updated 3186 movement instead of the 3185 that was used for 16710s up to that point.

As you can see, it's just a serial number, and absolutely nobody really knows at what point during those serials the "changeover" occurred...

Rolex simply does not publish such things.. It is only WIS who ponder such things...
