Rolex dilemma....
I used to own a Rolex 14060M non cocs, I traded it in for a new Rolex Maxi Sub model, however recently I have been missing my 14060, to the point of thinking about selling my new Rolex Sub and getting a second hand 14060 and maybe also buying a Omega Seamaster used for during the day wear. ( The Rolex only comes out at special times )
What do you think? |

What's the point of buying one of the most "tool watch" Rolex and its only worn at special time?

If you do not like it then flip it, however, it is a great watch, shame it is not getting worn.

I know I know I just hate to think I would damage it, believe me I love the watch I just don't wear it enough to keep it sitting there, that's why was thinking get a 14060 it's a bit cheaper and get the Omega for everyday wear deffo.....

Like others, I think your selling Rolex short, especially the 14060.
You should wear the Sub daily and you wouldn't need a watch for special occasions, but if you must, it would better that the Omega be relegated to such a position.

Why would you "save" a SS tool watch for special occasions. IMHO I don't prefer wearing my Sub with a suit of formal wear (it works but there are better options.)

I think we all have a daily watch and also one (or several) that we don't wear daily to avoid the inevitable dings in daily service.
Nothing wrong with that idea - and if a 14060 is your "protected one", more power to ya! I wear a Ball daily and rotate a few Rolex with it when I need change of pace.

![]() You should be able to find a good 14060. I'd forget about the Seamaster. If you're looking for bullet proof reliability stick with the no date sub. |

no kidding
If you have a great, tough watch like a Sub-date or 14060, wear it everyday for everything. You really only live so long-- if you aren't wearing it during the day, you aren't wearing it much, at all.
