The Sub 14060M was prominently displayed as a current model at the Basel 2010 Watch Fair..

Anybody who says that it has been discontinued is mistaken.....

Many people believe it was discontinued because it's no longer on the Rolex site and because of the new 116610. The truth is it's still in production and it hasn't been on the Rolex site for years!

Some epistemology is in order.

Why do we claim with such confidence that 14060 is "still in production?" Because it was in the case at Basel 2010? I don't think its appearance there is a promise by Rolex to continue producing it. Maybe they're selling off remaining stock.

Have Rolex confirmed that it's still being produced and that dealers can place orders for it?

hang on.... Im abit confused.
I thought the ADs gets whatever Rolex supplier, unless the AD get a stock transfer between their stores or puts in a special order, then a deposit must be placed.

Didnt know an AD can go to a meeting and choose whichever model he/she wants.....?!?

I don't believe that Rolex has some sort of conspiracy going on about Subs... Most of us are not confused...

If anybody chooses to not believe the Basel reports, the photos, and knowledgeable discussion........... they are free to do so.....
