Boy, the term "classic" means different things to different people. All of them can trace their heritage to the first divers, but if I had to say I'd go with the 14060.
The early Subs were sans date as it the 14060.--Everything you need for it's original purpose and nothing you don't.

got to be the 14060 - preferably without the COSC text on it. Carries the most DNA from the original sub.
