Great post Joe, thank you!

I like to talk a little bit more about the TWO LINER 14060M without Chronometer Certification, but the Chronmeter movement 3130.

First of all we find here the same, what we can find with the predecessor 5513 and 5512. Some Two Liners 5513 wear the movement of the 5512, but also without Chronometer Certification. History repeats itself.

The Two Liner 14060M was only produced for five years, this is aprox. the same short period as the Four Liner 14060M.  A lot of people prefer the Two Liner for the plain and clear dial without too many lettering. Personally i prefer the Four Liners, but this - may be -- is a question of the taste.

There are also differnt lettering on the Two Liner 14060 M, see this three pics from two of my 14060M, one from 2003 and the other one from 2004.

So, i am not sure, but may be in the future, the Two Liner 14060 M

FOUR  LINER

I think the most important thing is the Serial number on the rehaut the last year of production (2012). This is an absolut new way after so many years with the Serial number between the lugs. What we find here is a mix of prehystoric Rolex watches, like holes in the lugs and without SEL (14060 M never had SEL and was the last watch of Rolex without SEL) and the modern times with the RANDOM Number on the rehaut.

For me the 14060M in all configurations, Two or Four Liner, Chronometer or not, is one of the most collectibel watches from Rolex. Here ends the period of the old Submariner. The new 114060 with ceramic bezel and the terrible case is not the same watch. The difference between 5512/13 and 14060/M is minimal and Evolution. The difference between 14060/M and 114060 is Revolution.

I am sorry for the bad pic of the Random number, but my handy is not from Rolex.
