New Old Stock 5980 Stainless Availability?

I understand that this model was discontinued quite a bit ago, but curious if there is belief on probability (or actuality!) that there may be some NOS blue or black a AD has tucked away?

Saw recently another member score a white stainless 5980 from AD - Wishful thinking this may apply to stainless blue or black as well.

Visited Patek AD in San Francisco and spotted one white 5980 months ago. Could be the same piece someone here also encountered not long ago. For black dial, i think it's pretty much hopeless. Well, a friend of mine scored a brand new 5070j from an AD and it actually belonged to the owner of that AD. Sold at premium but you get recent dated on paper.

Thanks for the responses!

I ended up picking up a used blue 5980 from an AD out in Dallas.

Glad to hear though that there are still white ones floating around!
