Datejust 16014 numbering

I have a question regarding numbering. On a datejust, marked 16014, what I've found references that the bezel should be "Finely Engine Turned" and material would be "Stainless/White Gold." If I google search a 16014, however, all I find are watches exhibiting the "fluted" bezel. Can anyone shed some light on this for me? Thanks!

For example, I've found a few resources like this:

But then searching the forum it seems that the correct bezel is fluted white gold, confirmed by bullet 5 on this site:

The 16014 is a stainless steel watch with an 18k white gold fluted bezel and a plastic crystal. The 16030 is the plastic crystal with an engine turned bezel and probably the 16220 is the sapphire version, you get into the 'modern' stuff and I'm lost. :)

This is a 16030 with engine turned bezel...
