While TRF was down I started getting Rolex withdraws. They were getting so bad I ended up in my AD for a quick fix. Next thing I know, I walked out with this.

I bought one back in March and sold it a short time later. But, it's the one I missed the most. So, the 16610 was sold and now, my favorite is back. This is now my only Rolex and probably will be for a very long time

But, I'm happy, this one's a lot like me. Clean, simple, basic tool watch that's a little old school, yet new.

I'm sorry, but I haven't gotten any better at taking pictures

Congratulations on a fantastic purchase Craig!

Couldn't have put it any better myself. I tried the 16610 but it really didn't smile at me but the 14060M is great. Likewise, I think this one is a keeper for me for a long time.

You can't go wrong with a 14060M! Congrats!

Just don't try wearing that on one NATO strap .

We want to keep that baby securely on your wrist

Congrats! Welcome to the 14060 club

Don't listen to that gibberish. Your Sub would look great on a NATO.

I know I'm out of the Rolex loop, but did they finally smarten up and put the SEL on the no-date? Looks like it to me.
