Rolex to Modify 14060M Sub ND !?

[MagedMS]

Last week I spotted a BNIB [V] serial 14060M Sub ND @ my AD for 4900 US$ after discount.. I really like this Sub for its simplicity/symmetric dial/lugs holes and vintage like looking Rolex.... thinking of adding it to my Rollies!

Do you think is it a fair price?
Do you think it's wise to grab one now as it's still available?
Do you think it will maintain a good reselling price after years?
Do you think Rolex will modify it soon (Max.Case& Dial/Ceramic/Bracelet..)?

Last thing.. Are for/against modifying it.. Thanks.

Well speaking for myself I would not like Rolex to change the 14060M except for a SEL bracelet.The non date sub is a Rolex classic although things like ceramic inserts may look good to some.They will only add to the original price
and the insert functions the same no matter what the material.Rolex sports watches have always held the price well in the market place thats a fact.Not sure about price lost touch now of the Rolex new watch prices.

There have been lots of thread recently about this very subject mate. Have a little look if you get the chance.

As for my opinion, I agree with padi, I love my 14060m and the only thing id chnage would be the band and clasp because the new one is more adjustable. I have no issues with the fliplock, it has always felt very very solid.

The ceramic Subs are very nice but im still not completely sold on them. I think if I was given a choice i'd keep my Sub and get a GMT c

Go for it! It's the most beautiful Sub, IMHO, and has the most DNA from the original. Also, I think that's a great price for a BNIB from an AD.

i love my no date sub. probably the most comfortable watch to wear on a daily basis. i bought mine (non COSC version) about 6 years ago preowned for under 2500. to me that was a steal. i would buy it again for 4k so i think you are getting a good price on a great watch. if you dont like it after a while you can always sell it. seems like people like these no date subs around here so shouldnt be a problem.

Do you think is it a fair price? $1000 less MSRP
Do you think it's wise to grab one now as it's still available? Have not been discontinued
Do you think it will maintain a good reselling price after years? That really should not be a factor as its a Luxory item, but no
Do you think Rolex will modify it soon (Max.Case& Dial/Ceramic/Bracelet..)? Most likely

Last thing.. Are for/against modifying it.. Thanks. Not so much

Personally, I would not get a cosc 14060m with the rehaut engraving. That's just me. Mages the watch too blingy IMO
