Differences between date and non-date Sub
Hello
Can someone please tell me the physical difference between the older type 16610 date Sub and the non-date? I'm assuming that the date version is slightly thicker and heavier? |

The main difference the 14060M will have the cal 3130 which is basically a cal 3135 without the date complication as in the 16610.The bracelet on the 14060M is a non Solid end link type and the 14060M has a lug hole case and no cyclops on crystal for date.The weight difference the 14060M is 127 grams, while the 16610 is 135 grams.And the bezel insert on the 14060M is slightly narrower PLUS the price difference.

Thanks for this, apart from the cyclops, is the date thicker / taller on the wrist?

Yes but only a very small difference hardly noticeable.

The 14060M is how it should be.

The two watches are completely different.. They just look similar...
I did a review on some of the differences here.. http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=112776
