114060...my missing link?
Here is my current collection of Rolex divers with a pelagos in the mix. Now that I look at it, I feel I have a gap...and the only way to fill it is with a 114060. I'm not much for the cyclops even though I like the date function however.

You already have a 14060. I think an 114060 would be redundant, notwithstanding the Cerachrome bezel and Glidelock.

I also think 114060 would be redundant. Maybe a lvc?

I agree a "Hulk" would balance out your collection!

Go for the 114060 and don't look back.

Sell the 14060, get the 114060.
Better bracelet w/solid links, ceramic bezel, better clasp+Glidelock. |

I think you are missing some colour, add a 16610LV (Hulk) or get more variety with 16710 with a collection of besel inserts. |

Honestly, I don't really think you have a "gap" per se...if you want another diver I would take a look at the new SD43. Gives you a size you don't have in your collection with a totally different feel with the wider bracelet. Just my thought.

Since you don't like cyclops, have some great pieces and won't have issues with usability (you can rotate), I would look around for a 5513. The 114060 will be around for many years to come and its fairly easy to get, now the 5513 is the classic Sub, they are not so easy to find clean examples and I think it would compliment you collection better than a 114060 (which is pretty close to perfection Imo). Just look around.

The 114060 is a great piece for many. If you like it on your wrist then it's a good choice. It's your call alone. For me it was ungainly; I much prefer the 14060.

I thought I had found a good deal on a Hulk but it was sold..
I'm really liking the 16710..I was looking hard at these this past winter. The recent price hike has kept me at bay though. |
