Just read somewhere that the COSC doesn't have visible lugholes, is that true?

Thanks for any help! Now that it's been announced that they will continue to be produced, do people think the COSC will be more collectable?

Sorry for all the questions!

Hello niseko, Welcome to the forum. As for the 14060 vs the 14060M, this thread in the tech section will answer just about all your questions. http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=112776 AS for the engraving on the rehaut, that started about 2008 with the M serial number watches. That was done as an anti-counterfeit measure. As regards the non COSC vs the COSC 14060M, the movements are the same. More of an advertising hype by Rolex. Other than the addition of two more lines of print on the lower part of the dial, the watches are identical. In truth, many prefer the cleaner dial of the non-COSC 14060M. The 14060M still has lug holes to answer your last question. M

Fantastic, thanks for all the info MikeyTX!

I actually think I prefer the look of the non COSC but read a few people on here saying the COSC version will be more collectable.. wondering if people based that opinion on the assumption that it'd get discontinued soon..?

Thanks again!

Hate to disillusion them but I think it's going to be the other way around simply because the dial of the non-COSC has a cleaner look to it. In fact as soon as I can get hold of a clean "two liner" at a reasonable price w/box and papers, the new V serial 14060M goes back in it's box.

In this place it's perfectly normal behavior

a 1655# I bought new in 1973

another 1655, also bought new...in 1974
