Rolex Submariner 14060M 'Full-Set'

Rolex Submariner 14060M 'Full-Set'

Rolex created the world’s first water and dust proof wristwatch in 1926, which was the birth of the famous ‘Oyster case’. Then, later on in 1953 one of the most iconic models from Rolex was introduced. The Submariner.

The water depth rating of 330ft/100M of the Submariner made it one of the world’s first wristwatches designed for the upcoming sport of scuba diving. Rolex created the Submariner for divers who needed a precise watch that could withstand such depths while still be reliable and accurate when measuring the time spent underwater. To realise this Rolex created a timepiece which was easily legible yet still attractive due to its classic and timeless design features. The Submariner is distinguished by the large contrasting hour-markers and iconic Mercedes hands complimenting the black dial. The Submariner is a true classic and has proved itself over time, it’s by far one of the most desirable and iconic watches of all time.

It’s always a pleasure to offer either the Submariner 16610 or 14060, because they truly offer best of both worlds. Even though they have a sapphire crystal, a new caliber and other modern aspects - the updated case design didn’t affect its iconic 40mm case size, and it largely maintained the iconic design from the past. That’s exactly why both models are desired by both vintage and modern collectors.

The 14060 succeeded the iconic reference 5513, which is desired and appreciated by collectors thanks to its ’no-date dial’. Today we are offering a slightly different 14060. It’s a pleasure to offer you this 14060M which replaced the ‘regular’ 14060 in 1999. The additional M standing for ‘’modified’’ - the 14060M was updated with a newer 3130 calibre movement which boasted a larger balance wheel and full balance bridge. This particular example dates back to 2004 and therefore it has a dial signed ‘’Swiss Made’’ which indicates the use of ‘’Super Luminova’’.

This 14060M is one of the finest condition ones we’ve handled. The overall case is strong and complimented with thick lugs and the dial shows no cracks or blemishes. The bracelet shows minimal stretch and the insert is scratch free which is something you won’t see often. To top it off, this 14060M also comes with its original box, papers and a Rolex service guarantee from 2009!

The watch is recently serviced by our watchmakers and comes with a one-year warranty!
