My favorite 14060M vs 114060

I used to be a 14060M fan boy because really fond to its classic look.

Always felt 114060 lugs looks fat and ugly, unbalanced with its 20mm bracelet.

Now I really like my 114060 because:
- Better built robust case (still fit nice with smaller wrist) also looks and feel more expensive. Definitely an upgrade
- Maxi dail (always like 5512 maxi dail !!)
- Broader minute hand (I like everything on the 14060M except its thin minute hand, feels easy to get bored with it)
- Ceramic when you want more flashy and contemporary
- Parachrome Bleu (hard to comes by in 14060M)
- 10 years recommended service interval!! (try to beat that)

Neutral for me: Bracelet and clasp. I know many peoples like the new one. But I'm not a bracelet wearer so won't go deep about it.

Some imperfection (for me)
- Ceramic not as easy to dress down as aluminum
- Not as dress watch as 14060M
- Green lume looks more organic

My take:
14060 - more of a gentleman dress/tool watch (compare to 114060)
114060 - more of a military built jewellery tool watch (compare to 14060M)

Conclusion:
114060 Plus points > Imperfections
