Hello everyone,

Just wanted to share with you my joy and relief after months of searching and drooling over the Sub no date. I finally found one with some patina sneaking into the markers perfectly (not noticable in picture) and in an overall very good condition.

I just can't take it out of my sight, much less my wrist. With more pictures to come soon, please check out my first Submariner and thanks for taking a moment to visit this post😀👍

Nice, congrats

lastshotkid · 9 February 2015, 01:23 AM

Thanks guys! One quick question though and not sure whether I should start a new thread for this but was wondering if these older 14060 subs, mine is an E Serial, should run within COSC standards at all, although I know that they aren't officially certified.

Appreciate your responses- Cheers!

Beauties!

I love my Submariner 14060

Kapalua1 · 7 March 2015, 12:17 PM

Congrats it's a classic!

Yes - they can run within COSC standards if regulated. One of my most accurate Rolexes was a 14060 non COSC. I only corrected twice a year when the time changed and it was off about 15 seconds. It came from Rolex this accurate.

Hi and congrats on acquiring a classic. My 14060m is one of the last before the ceramics, and I'm so glad to have it, a great piece. Hope you enjoy every tick.

lastshotkid · 8 March 2015, 01:12 PM

They are truly mesmerizing, specially in person! So far, my Sub is running 3.2 per day within COSC.

I hope that its value continues to rise considering that they're no longer in production (14060 and 14060M)👍

I have the same and was lucky to get it for a crazy price. I don't want to be a downer, but I'm actually not that keen on the watch. I currently own a lot of nice watches of differing brands, and I never wear the Sub. But I will still keep it, as it's a random pre-C and hopefully one day I'll be able to fully appreciate it also.

I'm torn between this and the 16610 dated.

Alex4 · 9 March 2015, 12:58 AM

This two lines is a very good choice! Congrats!

lastshotkid · 10 March 2015, 11:42 AM

Does anyone know what how old a watch should be to be considered vintage?

Looks like your hands have been replaced? To me it looks like the dial has more patina than the hands. Just an observation and I may be wrong. Beautiful piece though!

Wacko · 19 April 2015, 03:29 PM

Grats, mine has been my daily wearer for the past 25 yeas and I still love it.
Cheers

Nice, I just acquired a 14060 as well and it is THE watch to daily wear for all purposes. I would not consider this watch vintage. Vintage would probably be 25yrs and older or 4 digit Rolex reference numbers.

Watchexpress · 19 April 2015, 07:38 PM

14060 is a really classic Watch

Love it

That's what I thought. Perfect beater watch in my opinion. Thank you for your input👍🏼
