No date, non-COSC sub

[sappie66]

I am not very familiar with this version of the venerable no-date. What years were they produced? Is it more rare than the COSC version? Do WIS, for one reason or another, consider it to be more desirable or collectable than the COSC version? Do they command a higher price than the COSC version or regular 16610 date sub?

Thanks.

No. Some purests like them more but not really reflected in price.

I would say no modern day Rolex should be thought of as collectible far too many around.And the only difference between any 14060 or 14060m since its introduction with the cal 3000 in 1990 is around 2001 they modded the movement into the 3130 and later around 2008 they were sent for COSC testing so a few more fonts on the dial and thats it.But before models like the Explorer that had exactly the same cal 3000 and cal 3130 were tested at COSC but same movement in the sub were not.Very much back in time like the S.Steel 6263/5 Daytona they were not tested but the all gold ones were but exactly the same movements in both.

Some collectors prefer the original look of the 2 line while others (myself included) like the cosc 4 line.

Nope, just preference. Get whatever you prefer.

[HORNBLOWER]

Two lines for me, keep it simple.

Two liner or the non cosc sub is the classic look.

Like what padi said, from 1990 to 2001 these used the cal 3000 movement. So from 1990 to 2000 they have the model number 14060.

From 2001 to 2005 were the 2 line 14060M using a modified movement cal 3130.

From 2006 to present cosc certified first appeared on later z serials

This is my observation of the model.

I s it reasonable to expect a pb spring on a random serial no 14060M?

[sappie66]

Thanks for the responses.

I have the 14060M non COSC. The cleaner 2 lined dial with the added bonus of the modified movement.

I waited for the right -T<25 watch in the right condition at the right price. Clean and simple, the quintessential Rolex:
