My first Rolex back in 2005 was the 14060m. It was a great piece.......

My first Rolex in the late 70s was a Submariner date. I do like yours for its simplicity without the cyclops. Congrats…

Agreed about the lug holes, which are convenient. |

A lot of people are of the opinion that the new Subs are only jewelry and not sport/tool watches any longer.

the 14060/M was the final continuation of that lineage IMO. For those not in the know - preowned 14060's were not that pricey, I paid +/- $3600 for mine a few years ago. For that price you could strap it on and go do cool stuff without worrying about your "value prop" of your $10k+ watch. Subjective, but yes Rolex has gone full on fancy/bling compared to older references. |

Still too shiny. That said I consider lug holes a requirement for properly securing a strap such as a NATO. |

1) Last great Sub with proportions similar to the vintage 4 series references; 2) drilled lug holes; 3) sapphire crystal which adds to practicality/functionality; 4) aluminum bezel (not as shiny or bling like ceramic); 5) substantially lighter than the six digit subs; 6) reliable 3130 movement; 7) 2 liner and 4 liner versions to choose from, including tritium in early 14060 non M reference. 8) only a Sub is no date (there are no M versions with date). 9) superluminova on later models. 10) still one of the best value Subs out there. 11) it’s a strap monster and versatile. |

I remember when the no date Sub sold for $3-4k used. Kicking myself for not buying one then! I do love the new 6 digit Sub for its beauty but you are correct it’s more of a statement piece than tool. Which is why they make this now: Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

It’s a beautiful watch, does it have the parachrom bleu hairspring? I’ve read posts from the RF and some claim that not all 14060M comes with the updated hairspring.
