Brand new to the forum, and looking for some information. I'm about to purchase my first Rolex, a 1995 14060. I believe it's a W serial number. I want to make sure everything is correct with it. What bracelet, end links, number of links, clasp code, etc.?

Could someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you in advance.

Admin - if I've posted in the wrong area, please move. Thank you.

I've got most of what I need. 501 or 501b end links? Thank you.

FYI, the serial prefix (W) does not correspond to a given year but will only give you an estimate of a range of years the watch was produced.

I have a 14060 from the same period (T serial). 93150 bracelet of course, and 501b end links.

You're about to buy an awesome watch! Post pics when you get it. I always like to see a classic 2-liner.

Thanks for the info, lots of it here. I'm picking it up this evening.

Looked at the watch last night and pulled the trigger. Negatives - service bezel insert, bracelet pretty stretched, and bevels polished out. Positives - all the numbers are correct using the information gathered here, and fresh service.

Here's a photo (maybe, never posted with photo from my phone)

Thanks again for all the information.

Sweet! Congrats! Looks great to me. Don't sweat the service bezel insert, it's still a genuine Rolex part. (Although I do dig the flat 4 on the old original insert for our watch.) Welcome to the 14060 2-liner family. Mine says hello.

Do you mind sharing what you payed for it ?

tommyz24 · 4 October 2013, 04:38 PM

You have good taste by the way . 2 liner sub is my favorite also, nice watch

That's a beauty. My '96 says hello.
