Rolex's 2014 specification gives calibre 3130, 31 jewels, a frequency of 28,800 beats per hour, an approximately 48-hour reserve and COSC certification. It also lists a blue Parachrom balance spring, Breguet overcoil, variable-inertia balance and stop-seconds. Auction records for watches dated circa 2007, 2008, 2014 and 2015 identify calibre 3130. The cited sources support the reference-level fitment; ~~individual~~ service history still belongs to the watch ~~being examined~~.

Reference 116034 is a separate 36 mm steel Oyster Perpetual with a fluted white-gold bezel. Dorotheum catalogues one example as circa 2008 with calibre 3130 and measures that watch at about 37 mm. This record describes one 116034; it gives no full production span ~~or basis for a general price comparison with~~ the ~~116000~~.

This record describes one 116034; it gives no full production span and should not be used to infer the 116000’s production record.
