To all who gush about selling their 14060s...

To buy something else-Shweetharts, you're gonna be sorry. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow...but soon, and for the rest of your lives.

Did you put a SEL bracelet on there? I thought they were the lone folded end link hold out?

Though I just flipped my 14060M for a 16600, I agree it is a classic and may acquire another in the future.

(I am very much enjoying my SD though )

Agreed, to sell your ND Sub would be a mistake in my view. I have a 16610 but if I had the 14060M I would certainly keep hold of it - a true classic and I believe far fewer in number then it's dated brother?!

I've got a brand new one of these. How long would you suggest holding on to it for and what price is it worth at the moment.?

Its really the only 'classic' watch in Rolex's current line-up, and
for me the clean no-date look of the Submariner is what makes
its special compared to the Submariner Date.
If you have it ... ... Keep It!



Mikey - the SEL looks good!!

I just flipped mine for a 16610LV. I don't regret it as my budget only allows for one Rolex. I'll get another one someday for a second watch. A nice, old preowned one tho...not the AD route I went last time.
