A couple of days ago I bought two "Greens" brand new in box

1. The new Ceramic 116610LV with a G serial number and
2. The "old" 16610LV which to my surprise has the new bar coded
serial with letters and numbers..?

Just thought I'd share this with you...rather odd I'd say...

So that means the order is

2006 = Z serial
2008 = M serial
2009 = V Serial
2010 = G + Random serial????

I think we can all give up on serial anxiety now... just enjoy the watch you have!!!

Serial numbers don't tell the real store. I have a co-worker that bought a Sub C with a M serial number. We know that watch is not from 2008.

Padi has been telling us that for years.

That is absolutely correct, they started making them then.

What I thought was wild was the fact that an older 50th
anniversary had a newer serial than the "newer" anniversary...

Does make me wonder if the new Sub and the GMTIIc share cases...that would account for the number
