V-Series Watches... going up in price or not..

What do you think.. will the V series watches get more appreciated in value since it was the last of the known serials?
Not that I have seen a sudden increase in V series watches.. but you never know.. it could happen..

I don't believe that, the first one with letters the R serial have not a better value.

The funny thing with Rolex guys is they always looking for things to get more for their watches and they always
complains when Rolex rise the prices.

Serial numbers mean nothing, it's just a letter stamped on the case. They have never added to the collectibility of a watch in the past.

Rolex now introduced 16610's with the new serial numbering system, so the V's are not the last of the classic 16610 subs.
