3135 still in service?
Are any current models still using the 3135, or has everything now made the switch? If so what was the last model to use the 3135?

There are no current models being produced with the 3135 beating inside them. I believe the Submariner Date was the last model whose movement got updated to 3235.

Being made? Probably not. Being shipped? Probably. Several reports of new 115200 (OPD 34) showing up at ADs. Assuming they're still using the old movement.
There are still two models using a 31xx series; the AK and MG w/the 3131 (which as I understand is a 3130 with Faraday cage). But those are the last (and probably won't last much longer). |

Yes, Danny is right. I bought a new 115200 in August that was newer delivered from Rolex to AD and it obviously still uses the 3135 movement.
Recently at my AD, he said that they are not getting too many AK and MG now, so he speculates that they will be renewed soon. If that happens, it would be the end of the 31xx movement.
