Is the GV going to be discontinued after 2010 for sure or just rumor?

rmcarlton · 19 February 2010, 02:14 PM

I haven't heard that. Doubtful.

Just around during idol chat. Can anyone post GREAT pix of it? I'm considering one as my first Rolex, but not around my town!

Mosco · 19 February 2010, 02:19 PM

I did hear that the last actual green crystal has been produced, not sure how many they have in reserves. No-one knows for sure except for Rolex execs, though.

hoser · 19 February 2010, 03:09 PM

Also, I noticed some letter designations -- M series, ect. Is this just denote year of manufacture?

Lol-x · 19 February 2010, 03:14 PM

Just seems like unfounded rumours to me.

HOW I WISH FOR THIS TO BE TRUE!!!!!!!......

....but usually i am not that lucky

Joey_V · 19 February 2010, 04:56 PM

I heard that the crystals are no longer in production so they have a stockpile of parts. I should ask my salesguy though, he'll get to the bottom of this.

Singslinger · 19 February 2010, 04:57 PM

Highly unlikely. Rolex tend to discontinue watches that are a) unpopular or b) to be replaced with a new version after being in production for decades.

The Milgauss GV was only recently introduced (in 2007 I think) and is very popular.

astcell · 19 February 2010, 05:36 PM

I met the rep in Tampa in late 2008 and asked the same thing, in case I needed to buy another. He said the watch will be around as it is for a while.

Daytonaboy1977 · 19 February 2010, 06:36 PM

If they have been producing the crystal since early 2008 till present I can imagine that is a huge number of crystals!! IMO I can't see the watch going anywhere for a very long time - also the GV has a huge following now and is not disliked like the original. If anything they may discontinue the white and black but the GV is here to stay - getting a funny deja vue of Submariner LV?

Typical AD BS...Someone was trying to sell you one IMHO.

If I hear anymore rumours about the discontinuation of the various Rolex models the Brand will disappear off the planet.
