14060 or Speedmaster+seamaster?

got a chance to trade my remaining moonwatch+bond watch for a 14060 with box and paper with no top ups from either side.

Would you do it? I already have a 16750 and thinking the 14060 would be the last watch I'll ever get.

but than they say, never say ever....

PS: i paid near $3k USD for the mw+sm.

Depending on condition and year of your MW it could either be a good or below average trade but that is also depending on serial and condition of the 14060. Trade seems reasonable.

Good trade depending on the condition of the 14060...is it a non-COSC or with COSC?

I would keep the omegas. I don't care for the ND sub.

Based on that Omega price point I'd say non-cosc.
Around a 'K'?

If you paid 3K for the Omegas then trade for the 14060... I had an Omega 2254.50.00 and sold it and bought the 14060M. I have never had regrets...

I'd do it.

As long as you don't think you'll miss your Omegas.

Any 14060 Submariner with the 3130 movement (meaning: 14060M)...2-line, 4-line, doesn't matter. Same excellent caliber with Breguet hairspring, full balance bridge, and all the Rolex-baked goodies. As to whether the dial says "chronometer" or not, that's all up to you and your preferences--either way, its the last interpretation of the classic Submariner you, I, or anyone will likely ever see. A great performer, a classic design that will be cool decades from now, and a solid buy at the right price.

Get a 14060M while you can!

Personally I would have a problem trading the Speedmaster Pro. If I could trade the Bond watch and cash for the Sub that's what I would do.

As long as the Speedy isn't a 105.012, go for the 14060m!

That's a tough one, and I've been in your shoes. While I like the 14060 better than both the Speedmaster and Bond Seamaster combined, I'd be reluctant to do the trade unless the Rolex had recently been serviced. If you have to turn around and service it right away, it doesn't seem like a great deal to me.

If it were me I'd rather keep the two Omegas, especially the moon watch.
