Rolex 14060M Review

As many of you know, I bought my first Rolex a couple months ago and I think now is a good time to share my thoughts of it with you. I chose the 14060M non COSC because to me, it is the most classic Rolex that is still fairly new. Anyway to start the review, I LOVE this watch. It is literally perfect for every occasion. I can think of so many adjectives to describe it. The most important would be elegant, rugged, stylish and simple. The two line dial with no cyclops keeps the dial perfectly balanced and not too busy. The fact that even the new 14060M's have lug holes is great because it makes bracelet changes so much easier. The overall feel of the watch is excellent. It just gives you the feeling of a solid, well made product that was meant to last forever. The size and shape of the case are exactly the ideal for any watch IMO. Not obnoxiously big, but not too small that it seems out of style. For whatever reason, I also really like the shape of the case. Not sure why, but it just very elegant to me. Another style point that I really like is the slightly raised crystal which is not found on newer rolexes. Also, the outer ring of the bezel of the watch shines amazingly in the light that makes it look almost jewel like. This is the perfect watch for someone looking for an excellent luxury watch to wear every day that will not call too much attention to itself. So far I have worn this watch during all sorts activities including jet skiing, fishing, shooting, unloading bails of hay on and off trucks, going to work and school, out to fancy dinners and really anywhere. I have no fear that this watch can go through anything that I can. If anyone has questions that I have not answered about the 14060M, feel free to PM me, as I would love to help anyone who is thinking about a watch like this. I can only say it has surpassed my expectations and is far superior to any Tag or Omega I've owned before. Thank you for reading, I hope this review has influenced anyone looking into this watch. Here are some pics of mine that I've taken.

I ordered the four-line, but there's no doubt that the two-line is a classic.

Good pix.

I also recently acquired a 14060M from DavidSW. I have the COSC version. It's definitely a great watch. Such a classic design. Congratulations!

I'll have to agree! I got mine about 2 months ago and wear it everyday including shower work home cooking etc! All I do is use a bit of compressed air and a towel to keep it clean and it still sparkles like a jewel!

I am perpetually torn between the 16610 and the 14060. This thread had me leaning back towards the no-date. Congrats!
