Great choice, congratulations. I have the 14060m as well as the PO 2500. Aesthetically, I like the Omega as much as the Sub, the dial, the AR and bracelet are all tops, and it keeps excellent time. But you're right, there is something about the Sub, in its simplicity that just seems to set it apart. Maybe it's the subliminal Rolexation over the last 30 years that makes me feel that way.
Enjoy it

As much as I like the PO (I still have one), you're right, the Sub has something about it that the PO doesn't. It just knows exactly what it is and doesn't try to be anything more or less. Very happy for you.

I know the 114060 has always had a keen following on TRF and it may be I'm paying attention because I got mine on 1 December but it feels that in the past month there has been a stampede to this piece. I'd love to see a spreadsheet showing what is selling in any give month.
