16610 for 14060M ( 2-Liner - NON COSC )
This is an even trade and I want to hear from your opinions before I make up my mind.

16610
- X serial
- Tritium
- Has box/booklets but no original warranty paper.
- No SS Bracelet.


14060M (2-Liner )
- K serial
- Luminova
- No box/booklets but has original paper
- SS bracelet

Both are in great condition.

I do like my 16610 with date but the 14060M has a cleaner dial. I love both but I can only choose one:)

What do you think?

I like the no date model. I have two 16610 rolexes and the date is not all that easy to read anyway.

It came down to those two watches for me, too. Ultimately, while I think the 14060M is better looking, I find the date complication useful, so I went with practicality over looks.

Granted, in your case, no SS bracelet for the 16610 would probably steer me towards the 14060M.

I'd say do it. The SS bracelet makes it for me

No bracelet on tne 11610? I would take the 14060 and build a set for it.

Because of the bracelet, the 14060M wins this one..



(from more than a few feet away they look the same)

Keep the 16610, buy the 14060- since the bracelet is the same for both watches you will then have two stainless steel watches...!
