No date, non-COSC sub
I am not very familiar with this version of the venerable no-date. What years were they produced? Is it more rare than the COSC version? Do WIS, for one reason or another, consider it to be more desirable or collectable than the COSC version? Do they command a higher price than the COSC version or regular 16610 date sub?
Thanks. |

Neither is more "rare"
Some collectors prefer the original look of the 2 line while others (myself included) like the cosc 4 line.

Nope, just preference. Get whatever you prefer.

Two liner or the non cosc sub is the classic look.
Like what padi said, from 1990 to 2001 these used the cal 3000 movement. So from 1990 to 2000 they have the model number 14060. From 2001 to 2005 were the 2 line 14060M using a modified movement cal 3130. From 2006 to present cosc certified first appeared on later z serials This is my observation of the model.

Liner preference
I s it reasonable to expect a pb spring on a random serial no 14060M?

I have the 14060M non COSC. The cleaner 2 lined dial with the added bonus of the modified movement.

I waited for the right -T<25 watch in the right condition at the right price. Clean and simple, the quintessential Rolex:
