Rolex have quite a few running at the moment,V,G,M,plus the random 2 letter plus numbers, but they are all just case stamps all stamped sometime in 2010.

If the serial is G123456(for example), is that mean a new or old watch?

There has also been reports of random s/n that only have 1 letter with 7 numbers. G & M s/n's follow the V series... but I do not know if G is first, or if M is first. Like Padi said... V,G,M are all being used at the moment. My V series is a V9xxxxx - which indicates that the V series is on its way out. I've seen a V98xxxx on this forum.

The story is like this, I asked for a Exp2 V serial, but the salelady(quite hottest) show me a G serial and also told me that's a newest serial, so I want to confirm what she said.

Newest current s/n's would include G, M and the random s/n.

G series and M series s/n's will look like this:

G123456
M123456

The random s/n will be 8 characters in length, including a combination of both letters and numbers in any (random) position.

Your saleslady is speaking truth. G series would be apart of the new s/n's currently being released at AD's.

How about tell her to forget the serial number and go straight for her phone number!
