Icon10 Incoming! Sub for Sub
Finally took the plunge and swapped my 14060M for the 114060. It's only been on the wrist for just over an hour, but I'm absolutely loving it!
DAVIDSW made it all happen, and I'd like to give him a shout-out for another impressively quick and professional transaction.
A solo shot, and then the new guy teaming up with its 52 year old predecessor.
Cheers all and have a great weekend!

Congratulations. :) I however have a wage feeling you will regret selling the 14060(M) some time down the line.

Thanks!
First impressions is an unfamiliar heft, without being the slightest bit uncomfortable. The glidelock: just stupidly good. I've never had a watch with a perfect fit and it's oh so good!

Congrats! Normally not an "easy" swap, but with your vintage in the fold, that was an excellent move IMHO.

Exactly right! I have been wearing the 5508 daily, and I think this will do better than the neglected 14060.

With its older brother who is still in the house for now.
