You’re welcome.

It isn’t uncommon when perusing older threads to find predictions that X Rolex model will go down in value. Are there any that are worth less today than they were 12 years ago?

True enough, but I don't think anyone had any clue that the watch market was headed where it has been the last 5 years.

Throw out a he last five years and it still was a lousy prediction, according to Chrono24 the 14060M was going for $4,300 in the summer of 2012 and $7,300 in 2019, pre-COVID.

Great point!

The 14060 no date today sells for more than the 16610 date
