Much happier.

It's a great piece but to shiny for me
Didn't you have the 'shine' taken out of the bezel on your 114060?

I love the hulk as it is, But between sub date and ND I prefer the ND.

Probably doesn’t make much sense lol

Hi N,

I am lucky to have a 14060m (K ) and a 114060.

The 114060 was my last purchase and on that day I had the choice of that one or a BLNR.

I chose the 114060 because I have a 16710 (M) and a 116713 (Z).

The 114060 bracelet and dial makes the watch and I recommend it.

The price and availability is good and you could pick up a nice 2nd hand one at a good price.

Obviously it wears bigger than the 14060 but the balance of the bigger case and heavier bracelet is ok.

E.

They make a perfect everyday watch! If I was ever looking to upgrade my daily, 116610LN or 114060 would be it.

Great watch and would fit very nicely in your collection! I love the clean dial and the history behind it

Yes, but it wasn't enough.

I've since had it tuned up and some parts changed by Rik.

Currently I have a BLNR, Hulk and 16710 Pepsi.

Anyone love their 114060 and want to share experiences/photos?
Have a BLNR and DJ and added 114060 this week. Obviously early days but I love it. So legible without the fuss of GMT hands or cyclops. Perfect everyday watch for me.

Its a no bulls**t hearty watch that simply tells the time. Looks great in any scenario and the perfect modern evolution of the original. Go for it!

Just to say thanks for all your encouragement lol
My 114060 hasn’t been off since I got it, despite my other lovely watches.

If you’re on the fence for a 114060 I’d say go for it.

No need to kick yourself fella, you should be able to find a 114060 from a trusted seller for less than MSRP.

A 114060 for under mrsp?
All the used ones I see in the UK are over MRSP.

I dont think a sub no date will bring too much variation to your existing collection as you've already got the hulk.i would suggest you get the tt blue sub or the TT chnr instead.

Thanks mate, these have crossed my mind.

However now added the 114060 and really enjoying its pure simplicity.
Always time to add more and certainly like CHNR and TT Sub.

I picked up my 114060 two weeks ago and couldn't be happier. There are lots of great watches in the Rolex line, but for me, the 114060 is the only reference I want/need. Also, relatively speaking, it's practically a bargain at $7500. Seems like it could serve as an anchor in any collection, despite having other, similar models...
