She is Getting Old

My first watch now getting on for 14 years old and in pristine condition and serviced regularly. Just hope the new one gives the same service

Looks great after all of these years. My 14060 is from 1994 (20 years old now).

Great combo, with a slight personal preference for the old one.

Crickey, my Tudor Submariner is 20 years older than your "old" sub. I'm surprised the plastic isn't still on yours. All kidding aside, I tell people to always pick their Rolex carefully because they'll have it for a long, long time. You're in a great position to tell people the difference between the two generations, which is subtle yet very substantial when you just put one on after wearing the other for a while. Enjoy!

To be honest have hardly wore the new model, tend to stick with my old trusty.

Yes and happy and contented

Just something about the old model seems to sit better on my wrist
