I would love to see some pictures of 14060M's that have a nice "patina" from every day wear (scratches on bracelet, the odd ding etc) No safe queens here just well worn Sub-ND's with some character.

Mine is only two weeks old so its still fresh!

Will you accept a non M?

Looks great Chris. The only Rolex I'm a fan of nylon straps on.

Can't help you with a bashed up one but here's my 2 week old baby with it's much worn older brother.

I've been wearing this one for about six months almost exclusively.

It's not too beaten up, but there are a few dings here and there.

I have a dent in one of the links and the clasp has some swirling, it's a mess

It's been in my pool several times, at least 5ft deep, and a couple of times at the lake

Keep them coming. Lets see some well worn/used pics.

My 14060M has got a couple of dings here and there which used to bother me...But the pure simple classic iconic look of the overall watch just surpasses any flaws!

A "M" will not have patina - it has super luminova. Dials and hands with tritium can patina.

Patina does not strictly refer to hands and indices. Patina also refers to accumulated changes in surface texture and colour that result from normal use of an object such as a coin. An oyster bracelet with many scratches and scuffs is considered patina.

My U serial, tritium lume, awaiting summer nato duties.

Lots of character lines and patina which don't show due to my inferior camera skills.
