Attention 14060 owners (NOT the newer 14060M)! Is this even possible? Need your help.

I'm looking to (maybe) purchase a pre owned ND Sub 14060. Like I said on the title of my thread, it's a 14060 not the newer (or modified) 14060M. I am comfortable with the seller, me and my friends have purchased from him in the past and he's a cool guy. But as I was playing with the watch the other day, I noticed that the hands turn counter clockwise when I turn the crown clockwise! I remember reading here that the hands should turn clockwise when turning the crown clockwise too (on modern Rolex watches) otherwise it's a fake! However....on the older ones, I know that this is possible. I do have a manual wind 6694 and the hands turn counter clockwise when I turn the crown clockwise. So my question is.......is this alright for a 14060 that the hands turn counter clockwise when I turn the crown clockwise? What year/serial did they change it to the new one where the hands turns clockwise when you turn the crown clockwise? And if you do have a 14060 (NOT THE 14060M), does your hand turn clockwise (or counter clockwise) when you turn the crown clockwise? And what serial is it?

Any input would be appreciated! Thanks TRF!

My 14060 (sourced new from an AD) has this same situation. It is an E serial.

Thats quite normal for watches with the cal 3000 and cal 3035 movements,and the 14060M cal 3130 was introduced 2001.
