You can then start dividing them into different dial versions, different batches of case number styles, presentation watches / professionally used watches........there's always another one you just have to be looking for......
Here's one of mine, a nice example because this is a 1665 with the unique 600m (rather than 610m) depth rating :
As a watch with a unique and logo-ed, original dial, used professionally and with dive-logs etc documenting the incredible work of its recipient, which can be provenanced further by the surviving delivery manifest from Rolex to Comex which specifies its case number and corresponding issue number, it is one of the most sought after models --- but not the rarest.
Piecing together the jigsaw of models and numbers is very satisfying; finding them is somewhat more difficult!

Very detailed. Probably one of the best answers!
