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!

mrbill2mrbill2 · 3 August 2012, 09:17 AM

The anchors ended years ago - around 2007 if my memory is correct.

$5,500 sounds reasonable for BNIB.

GradyPhilpott · 3 August 2012, 09:22 AM

$5500 is an excellent price. MSRP was $6300 when I bought mine in November 2011.

Forget about the anchor.

I got bored with my anchor.

Ed Rooney · 3 August 2012, 09:53 AM

Is it a 4-line?

ROLEXUS · 3 August 2012, 10:13 AM

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..

Where can you still get the anchors, by the way?

I got quoted $6,300 for brand new 14060M.

GradyPhilpott · 3 August 2012, 02:31 PM

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

beaglehusky · 3 August 2012, 05:17 PM

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

Thats really interesting, thanks.

wokafu · 3 August 2012, 07:31 PM

I was offered USD6350 2 months ago when I visited the AD... your offer is great

TSW · 3 August 2012, 07:48 PM

Congrats on a classic reference.

impalass · 3 August 2012, 07:49 PM

For $5500 BNIB jump on it !

Around here ADs are firm at $6350 because it's a discontinued model.

Surefire · 4 August 2012, 12:23 AM

Thanks to everyone for the advice.. May I ask what is 2 liner or 4 liner dial, no idea, ill keep posted with the year model. Thanks again..

azguy · 4 August 2012, 12:26 AM

Surefire · 4 August 2012, 12:32 AM

Thank you for the advice, but what is a 2liner? I have no idea what that is.. Thank you!

Surefire · 4 August 2012, 12:34 AM

I cant spot the difference Im sorry, and yes It is a BNIB with stickers and everything On it, and its an Authorized dealer. Thanks!

Surefire · 4 August 2012, 12:39 AM

Is it the graduation above the 6ocklock part? If there are four or just two? Thanks!

impalass · 4 August 2012, 12:48 AM

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 (?)

velobran · 4 August 2012, 01:38 AM

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

nauticajoe · 4 August 2012, 01:48 AM

I'd jump on it!
