Hi Guys,

I have been given the opportunity to purchase both of the sub models above. As this will be my first Rolex purchase, I’d really appreciate some people’s opinions on the 2. I like the slightly smaller size of the no date 14060, but I do like the date version too. I suppose it comes down to what will hold it’s value as there is a good chance that the one I buy may not stay on my collection forever as I do like some of the older GMTs, but if I love it, I will keep it.

14060 all day long.

harrisonkris66 · 24 January 2021, 11:29 PM

I would go 14060. Not a fan of the maxi case it looks too square. I had a 14060 but had some issues with it after a month of owning and was offered a 114060 instead of the 6 week wait. I always regreted it and wish i just waited for the repair . I sold the 114060 a few years after and brought a 16610. Pre ceramic are the nicest in my eyes.

you cant go wrong either way. for me i like the chunkier case, ceramic bezel, glidelock and bracelet. the differences between the bracelets and clasps are not even close.

i would say the 14060 has more character than the 116610. if it were the 114060 i would go with that over the 116610.

Both great pieces. I love my 14060m and have no plans to ever let it go. Really depends on personal preference with case size and dial. Though the bracelet may be a big factor to also consider. Good luck and post pictures once you decide.

116610LN is the best Sub ever made

fskywalker · 25 January 2021, 01:06 AM

From those 2 the 5 digit Sub 14060 would be my choice

Definitely 14060M

doramas · 25 January 2021, 04:11 AM

14060 always.

brandrea · 25 January 2021, 04:14 AM

Such different watches.

I guess it’s starts with date vs no date. Do you have a preference?

Next, I’d go with the one you think will suit your sense of style and which will wear more comfortably on your wrist.

Good luck

Buying both sounds like an opportunity if the price is right.

Seaswirl · 25 January 2021, 04:15 AM

Six digit over five for me.

wayne93117 · 25 January 2021, 04:16 AM

5 digit, always!
