Rolex Submariner "Bold" Font
Recently, the Rolex Submariner models 114060 and 116610LN have font different from the previous years, with a "Bold" text
Do this have an effect on this value vs. the older models? |

Highly doubt it will and most don't even realize there is a difference. I personally like the bolder font and own one so I may be biased.

IMO, most likely will not affect sale value given that font changes occur somewhat regularly. Of interest, there is also no longer a space between “300” and “m” and the f in “ft” is longer. I like the changes

No, the dial variations on 6 digits make no difference.

Which do you like better? That is the key.

At some point it may or may not make a difference, how's that for an answer!
In the end, the Sub is a mass produced watch and sellers will do anything they can to convince buyers that their Sub is better than their competitors.
