14060

[gman5515]

Hi All,

Dont know if this has been covered on here but here is some interesting information which could be useful on the much loved iconic Rolex Submariner 14060 & 14060M "None Date"

Make: ROLEX
Model: SUBMARINER
Model: 14060 (M)
Year: 1990 - 2012
Case: 39.5 mm
Dial: BLACK
Movement: 3000/3130
WR: 300m

39.5 mm stainless steel case with polished sides and brushed upper. Rolex Triplock screwed down crown. Water resistant to a depth of 300m (1000ft). Model number located between the lugs at 12 o’clock. Serial number located between the lugs at 6 o’clock. Black dial with unidirectional black aluminium divers bezel. Sapphire crystal. Rolex calibre 3000 automatic movement with 31 jewels. Fully brushed Rolex Oyster bracelet with pressed stainless steel folding clasp and divers extension

In 1998 the 14060 became the 14060M and the movement was upgraded to the Rolex calibre 3130. In 1999 the dial of the 14060M Submariner changed from Tritium to Luminova. In 2007 the 14060M became a certified chronometer and extra text was added to the dial sometimes referred to as COSC, or 4 line, From 2007 the 14060M Submariner was produced with an engraved inner rehault.

Other Information

The Triplelock crown is physically larger than the Twinlock, there is also four separate rubber gaskets as apposed to the two in the Twinlock crown, This is the major factor difference in allowing the Triplelock to be water resistant to a deeper depth, The Triplelock crown is identified by three separate dots beneath the Rolex coronet on the winding crown.

Both the Rolex Submariner 14060 to 14060M... 93150 Bracelets do not have SEL "Sold End Links" or solid center links for this matter,

Cheers

Rehaut rrr is referring to the engraving on the inner case, lined up to the 60 minute markers on the dial..  ROLEXROLEXROLEX all around, 12 o clock should have the coronet(Rolex crown),and serial number between circa 26 - 34 minute markers... roughly.. rehaut rrr engraving started circa M series onwards.. which was circa 2007 onwards..you can refer to rolex serial numbers here:

Which year or series is your 16610? for the 14060 and 16610, there were years which did not have the rehaut engraving, and only from M series onwards, did they start to have the rehaut engraving. 16610 was produced between circa 1987 to 2010.. that's a long time, and only from circa 2007 onwards did the 16610 have engraving. So it all depends on which year your 16610 is from.

The 16610 was in production for a long time, but for those with rehaut engraving, i would not really consider it 'rare', but its certainly rarer than the those from earlier series. I feel rehaut engraving does provide some assurance of it being genuine, and off the cuff, I would say it sells easier. I'm not sure how to describe it bro, but I guess having the rehaut engraving provides layman a little bit more assurance its genuine, though some replicas and fake watches do have, but its usually more difficult to copy and perfect it. So, for sure the 16610 with rehaut engravings would command a higher value than those without. unless u are into tritium dials, but that's another issue and topic altogether.

Hope this helps?

Somehow the new case with maxi lugs just doesn't appeal to me.

Somehow the new case with maxi lugs just doesn't appeal to me.

it does tend to be kinda "fat", especially when you compare to the previous models like the 14060/16610 subs.. hence, the Submariner Kermit 16610LV with maxi dials but retaining the slimmer case has been so popular and prices have risen tremendously over the last 2 years.
