My new 'old' 14060

What can I say.I LOVE NON DATE SUBS.Saw this at my watch dealer today, and I knew I just have to pick it up.Very reasonable price for the package I got.Its a E96xxxx serial, putting it correctly with the dated papers....1992.Complete package.....even the calendar is 1992.

Nice creamy patina on the hands and hour markers.Nice thick lugs.

I am a happy man indeed.

Congratulations Peter. Beautiful example of a preloved Sub.

One of these is gonna have to be my next watch in the collection. I was thinking of a used Glashutte Sport Evolution Pan'datum but this has changed my mind again!!!!!

Wear it in good health.
