There are ones with the new random serials. DavidSW has one of the randoms in the or sale section if you want to see one.

There is nothing definite about the 16610LV being discontinued its still being advertised on the Rolex web site.So there could be the new type serial on the
16610LV but its still only a serial number no matter new type or V.

I see no differences in the M, V, or

the new serial number other than, you guessed it, the serial number. IMHO, the ones that are sought after are the Y9xxxxx and early F09xxxx that were introduced as the first release in late 2003. There's one Y right now on TRF, but unfortunately it's not the complete package (missing paper) or else I would have snapped it up already.

I have been searching for one for the past 5 years. Either complete package Y or early F that has the 2003 date stamp on the paper will do.
