No 16610 sub is rare there are simply millions of them around and both G serial and random serials were running in the same time frame from around 2010 on.Yes it might be the end of the 16610 range but rare they are not, and one serial is much like all the rest of the case serials. And Rolex have neither made a series of any watch they are just case serials..

They're out there. If that's what you want be patient. Price is all dependent on condition first and full set or not. Good luck

They are not rare, you just need to look a bit longer.

The last of a series is a nice to have but I don't expect a hype on that.

I just bought one in Italy for $6500 in "like new" condition and full papers.

There's been no reports of a single 16610 3135 movement containing the Parachrom AFAIK.

This rare 16610 Sub pre ceramic. Got to make this old guy smile perhaps they are as rare as hens teeth,or just internet marketing but like the old saying a fool and his money are soon gone.

Of course it depends on the overall condition of the watch, but I would say it is a good price. I just paid $1000 more than that for 2010 in real good shape.
