the Alphabet Dilema...

I'm probably asking a question that has come up before, but does anyone speculate on what Rolex will do when they run out of prefix letters in the serial numbers? Not sure how many letters have been used/unused, but they will need to reinvent their serial number system sometime.

So far they've only used 19 letters so I don't think they have to worry yet.
