The Rolex Submariner 14060M <\/strong><\/em>comes from a long line of Submariner timepieces which have stretched the envelope of what is possible in a modern timepiece. When Rolex first introduced the ref. 14060 in\u00a01990, it came equipped with the Caliber 3000 automatic movement. This watch model combines\u00a0 the modern Submariner construction along with its vintage submariner roots.\u00a0 Although Rolex launched the new Submariner with the new more powerful caliber last year, this Rolex 14060 is still in extremely high demand and is fetching prices into the $15,000 range.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

This timepiece has a clean look with no-date on the dial. It has all of the main features that collectors want in a Rolex Submariner. This timepiece was made for the water. It has waterproofness support for up to 1000 feet, although it is rumored it will support more than that. It is tested by the COSC not only for waterproofness but also for its superlative chronometer features. It supports time within 2 seconds of accuracy on a daily basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rolex Submariner 14060M features a sapphire crystal, and an updated caliber- 3130, giving the watch more shock resistance and stability. The caliber 3130 has 31 Jewels, a power reserve of 48 hours and beats at the high frequency of 28800. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additional features of this Rolex watch include a triplock crown, and two line-dials which maintains the old feel of a Submariner vintage watch. The black dial is ideal with a watch like this. It has simple Rolex elegance with the power and ruggedness of a tool watch. The steel 40 mm case and bracelet are made to be worn no matter whether you are at the beach, diving, or wearing a business suit. This timepiece is not flashy, but functional and will catch the eye of people who really know its value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rolex Submariner 14060M has an Oyster bracelet made of 904L Stainless Steel with end links and an Oyster clasp. It has long lasting luminescence on this timepiece so it will glow strongly in night time and underwater. This model has a roughly 20 year production period and so it is very likely you will find a wide variety ages on these after market Submariners. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sub prices have been rising steadily. If you were lucky enough to get your hands on one of these masterpieces before the massive runup in prices, you will be sitting on a great investment should you want to upgrade to a newer model. However, most collectors would rather hold onto this timepiece because it is extremely wearable and solid. They look good with every day use and are dressy enough to be worn with a suit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
