Swing tag on rolex tags - WG Pepsi GMT production

Just wondering when Rolex switched from using the green swing tag with model and serial number to the white one ?
Reason for me asking is having picked up WG Pepsi GMT and it appears to have old green tag.
Also when looking for Pepsi I noticed I've never seen new one with white hand tag.
Is it possible that Rolex haven't sold all their stock and maybe haven't manufactured any pepsi GMT's from beginning of 2016.

Realise that my watch was probably sitting in AD for months or even year or so but do any WG Pepsi exist out there with the new white hang tag ?

FYI - I'm happy with my pepsi gmt but just wondering if still manufacturing these anymore

Pepsi is quite a hard watch to move (i love it but the price is too beyond my reach!)

Most likely the watch came with the green tag and stayed at the AD till you picked it up.

Just my guess.
