Rolex Submariner 14060 - How Many Links?

An AD sold me a preowned Sub 14060 with only 11 links. Shouldn’t there be 12? He didn’t mention anything about parts missing.

There should be 12. All my Rolexes have 12 links, including the 14060.

12 is correct for a 14060.

Buying a used watch that was sized for the previous owner is far from having "parts missing".

You can pick up extra links from most dealers for 35 bucks or so.

Return the the AD and ask for the missing link.

Also, did you get the original box and paperwork showing the serial number?

Parts missing was definitely not the right choice of words. It’s from Tourneau. They could be pretty pricey for preowned, but I have confidence in purchasing with them due to their high standards in their process in qualifying a watch as certified preowned.

For some reason the 14060 has 12. 16610 has 13.
