14060M help needed!!!
Looking to buy a NEW 14060M sub today, and I need help the Authorized dealer is asking for 5,500 + tax. I didn't get the chance to get the Serial of the watch but somehow if anyone can give me any advice what should I be getting,and does it still have an Anchor just like the older version? Stuff like that. Thanks!

The anchors ended years ago - around 2007 if my memory is correct.
$5,500 sounds reasonable for BNIB.

$5500 is an excellent price. MSRP was $6300 when I bought mine in November 2011.
Forget about the anchor. http://www.minus4plus6.com/PriceEvolution.htm

Anchors disappeared years ago. Price sounds ok (compared to what they were asking in Oz). What's the serial number? Is it a 4 line or 2 line dial? I honestly believe the 4 line versions of these are going to be very sought after in the future. They were the last evolution of the 'classic' sub and were only around for a couple of years and didn't sell very well..

I've been told that anchors show up on the bay from time to time.

That sounds like a pretty good deal if it is complete, BNIB and from an AD. Grab it!

For $5500 BNIB jump on it !
Around here ADs are firm at $6350 because it's a discontinued model. |

Two line vs four line refers to the lines of writing on the bottom half of the dial. azguys pic is a two line for example. A four line has two additional lines that read "superlative chronometer officially certified" below the Submariner 1000ft 300m.
The four lines started appearing around 2005 (?) |

If my AD had offered it at $5500, I would have bought it on the spot. They wouldn't budge from $6300.
