Rolex Submariner

My Dad bought his from here

In fact, that's the exact one he bought. Paid about £4200 if I remember rightly. After doing the research, the 14060M is the one to have.

I like the 14060 myself but I wouldn't take it as gospel that its the one to have. Depends if you want date, non-date, how old, gloss dial, matte dial, etc etc. Do your research first, there are plenty of guides on the net and forums (try TZ) that go into more depth than the PH watches one does.http://www.watches.co.uk/watch/15923s/rolex-submar...

Do NOT buy anything on eBay if you aren't very experienced and clear in what you are doing (which you aren't - no offence). That site recommended is ok, watch finder is ok ( and they are very open to negotiation), Blowers, our own Dom Hackett, etc. You might pay a couple of hundred more from a decent dealer than on the 'bay but then you'll be getting a genuine, well presented piece, not a 'genuine fake'

+1 Though I know of a Sub Date that would go at a very favourable price...

What a bizarre 'statement of fact'. That is merely someone, somewhere's opinion.Let me try again...
'Based on the research I did at the time and handling a few watches, I decided that the 14060M was my favourite'
My reasoning over the newest model is the absence of the newer shape lugs and the absence of the ceramic bezel. I view it as more of a 'classic' submariner than the newer shape.
^^^^^^
Yes, all down to personal opinion, I agree on the older style lugs and bezel, although I've never liked the drilled lugs on the one in your link. I also like the date/cyclops more than without. They're all nice watches of course, so pick what you like and buy carefully through someone you trust. Dom H and Blowers are a good place to look, or head to Burlington Arcade (but do your homework).
