14060 Question

[FNFZ4]

They said that when you turn the crown clockwise (meaning toward the 12) the time should go clockwise if it goes anti clockwise then its a fake. Is this true for 3130 movement?... If so...OMG

The 3130 movement is the one that is in the 14060M and it should turn clockwise when you turn the crown clockwise..

The 3000 movement is in the 14060, which was discontinued in 1999. That movement, and the date version 3035, turn opposite..

All ETA movements used in fakes turn opposite..

Wow, another example of Larry's incredible, amazing Rolex knowledge base.

Ok got it. A serials are 1998 give or take and P are 2000 give or take right? K 2001, Y 2002 and so on...

So this watch was made in 1999 or should I say the movement was made in 1999 but the case was stamp in 2000? Im just curious... the watch is a P75XXXX so its late in the year right?

Very interesting...

There is always some carryover when Rolex transitions to their new changes..

Serial prefixes are estimates.. Many people fall into the trap of considering the many charts around as absolutes... they are not, as Rolex never releases such information..

You may have one of the very last 14060's made.......
