I would have thought Rolex in keeping with the naming convention established with the 3185 - 3186 (parachrom) - 3187 (paraflex) that the movement in the SubC would have changed designators from 3135 to 3136 as it has the parachrom hairspring.

Anyone know why it didn't?

When will the 3135 get the paraflex shock resistant upgrade? Maybe at that point Rolex will give in and redesignate 3137?

Maybe announce at Basel 2012?

Thoughts?
