No idea it's a limited model I think 1014 pieces for the 50th anniversary.Nice! Price?
im getting close to pulling the trigger. What you all think, 114060 or late model 14060m? I am currently leaning towards the 14060m.
If i go 5 digit obviously it will be used, but if i go 6 digit will try and get new. Looking to spend around 8000 so not sure if i will find a new one at that price, i may wait or go slightly used at that point.As a very proud owner of the 114060 there is not a day that goes past that I don't think this watch is amazing. The 14060 as some have said is extremely underwhelming in person for the money you spend on it. The 114060 feels like a quality watch, with the latest tech (ceramic bezel, glidelock, etc) in comparison to the 14060m.
I think if you look at watch forums they'll push the 14060m as the last true tool watch but often they are caught up in nostalgia. The comments in regards to the super case are quite funny to me as historically the more rectangular design you see in modern rolex today is closer to the original submariners of years gone by.
Also do you intend on buying new or used as this will play a role in what you buy as there is no telling what years of quirks an older watch may have picked up.
Personally the 114060 is the way to go. It's classy, modern and masculine. The only choice will be what dial to choose from....
Went to the Rolex AD to try in the OP. Low and behold, they just put the black and white dial 39mm out and had the white 34mm in the case too.
The sales associate who I believe to also be part owner, tried his hardest to steer me away from the 34mm. “You don’t want that, you’re mistaken” “ you’re a big guy, ya know, I’m sure you Want something bigger”
I tried on 34 and 39 and he was amazed at how well the 34 fit, but still was like “you’re such a big guy, you don’t want a little watch, god forbid you start working out *flexes*”
First thing, I’m already sensitive about my size, I don’t need to be reminded repeatedly lol. 5’9 220 (shrug)
Secondly, I told dude I was going for more of a “classic “ silhouette and he was still persistent. Having tried on both the 34mm is really as classic as it gets and comparing it to a 36mm datejust it’s minimal difference in wrist presence.
Nice! Price?
Well I’m out$30k+
Nice date above. Rocked my fave PO today to dinner.
Always buy what YOU like
I can't afford what I like . There's no way I can drop paper A Lange Sohne or LIKE new Gmt Rolex at this point
I went with a 14060m 2 liner strictly for aesthetic purposes. The only things I like about the 6 digit are the working warranty and bracelet, but the 5 digit bracelet isn't as bad as most make it out to be. If you can somehow try both of them on, that would probably help you make a better decision. I know this won't help, but they're both great choices. It's just going to come down to the little details you prefer.
Is there a reason the Breitling Superocean Heritage II barely gets any love?
Is it a resale thing on Breitlings? Or just their rep for gaudy massive watches?
The SOH at 42 looks rather clean and simple
