Big Congrats on your Submariner... I traded mine in on a new Subc which I do love and at the time wasn't a mistake but after 2 yrs. now I'm very happy to add a 14060m back to my collection for keeps. I really know now it is the perfect Sub.

Can't go wrong with a 14060(m). It's a classic.

Now that it's here I can actually say I like it way more than I thought I would. The case shape and lack of bling compared to my ceramic models (BLNR and LVc) is a nice change of pace. I can see how some people even prefer it over the current line-up. I think I've found my new daily

Congratulations. There is something almost spiritual about the 4 and 5 digits that the 6 digit ceramic models just haven’t been able to replicate. They remind us of a time when watches were truly necessary and stylish - a perfect mix of form and function.

Very clean. One of the watches on my list is a birth year (‘77) Submariner. I love the feel of older watches and yours is certainly a beauty!
