generally speaking the older models would be considered more rare than the newer ones purely by means of production. Rolex is at 1,000,000 watches a year nowadays if not more. But they weren't always producing watches at this rate.
For more information, here's a great link from hodinkee with a collector named John Goldberger: https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/ta...ohn-goldberger
