My late 2005 random serial number 14060M two line S/S Sub purchased new from an AD (Ben Bridge of Waikiki) was manufactured before Rolex started doing the engraved rehauts.

teehan · 2 September 2023, 12:39 PM

the rehaut engraving first appeared on the 116264 datejust turn-o-graph in 2004.

this model has since been discontinued..

MSL997 · 2 September 2023, 12:42 PM

Depends on the model, I would say by 2007 all the sports were stamped RRR

KermitGang · 2 September 2023, 12:50 PM

16710 ended production without engraved rehaut.

Serial number on Rehaut in 2005, and by 2007, or 2008, they began engraving Rolex all around the rehaut.

That model was produced from 1999 to about 2009, so may or may not have an engraved rehaut, depending on year of production. You can always have it authenticated.

That would be 2007. Some 2 liners were 2007, and then 4 liners began also in 2007.

It was from 2004 Serial F/D on some models the Rolex Rolex Rolex on the Rehaut ring started but not on all models in the same time frame.

DM101 · 2 September 2023, 08:10 PM

Started in later batches of the Z series. M and V series all are rehaut. This is based on my experience and purchase history of my Rolex timepieces. Hope this info is useful.

the only M & V series model without the rehaut engraving was the pre-ceramic seadweller (16600). it is the only model without the engraving until it was discontinued in 2008.

Not true. I had an M 16610LV that had no rehaut. Some had them and some did not at that time.

You don’t have a random serial if it was 2005.

Correct random serials started the latter part of 2010 with the last of the single letter G serial.

NorthernPike · 7 November 2023, 06:48 AM

I bought my 16610 LV in 2008. I had the choice of engraved or not. I chose not, with a Z prefix. I don't know what prefix the engraved one had.

fishingbear · 7 November 2023, 11:04 AM

I have a M 16610LV that has rehaut. I bought in new from my AD in 2005.
As said above: Some M serials have it some don’t.

Sgooter · 7 November 2023, 11:37 PM

2004 + 116263 TOG + F-serial# + Rehaut = Eye Candy
