14060m for $6k?

Howdy guys! I have an opportunity to purchase a 2010 v serial full kit 14060m for $6k. Owner claims it’s been in a safe for 3 years (and polished once). Should I pull the trigger and flip the 216570 away?

That's a below market deal then. If everything checks out, I'd take it.

I’m a fan of the four line 14060. Sounds like a good deal to me.

Note, he's not buying it from a dealer, just a friend of his.

A dealer would slap on another grand.

too much if you plan on wearing it. if you're going to sit on it for 20yrs, maybe.

That's a good deal with b&p. If everything checks out you should jump on that.

No idea?

YES!!!

the last 14060M 4line RRR. Highly sought and valued in Italy/EUrope

few watches in the world have the practicality and sobriety of the Sub 14060

If you’re comfortable with the seller, and can show up with the cash in a safe place, then it looks like you really have a good deal ahead.
