Rolex Submariner No Date Comparison - 14060M vs 114060 vs 124060 (4K)

New 12 series submariner is made for an increasingly obese population. Huge.

It's just damn stupid that Rolex went for a 21mm lug width on the 124060 🤦‍♂
Just hoping they'll correct that in the next generation or two...

Just get yourself a Blackbay 54

124060 is the king 👑 of the wrist

Brother the best Rolex submariner is 40mm it’s the original 41mm is a joke

Just been considering some great deals on all three while shopping in Hong Kong, and agree 100% with your take. Both newer ones have a bolder/blingier look (bigger crown guards, fatter dial markings, more text, rehaut engraving) – and I can see why that will appeal to some – while the 2-liner 14060m is classic, simple, clean, yet with a great movement ... kinda like the classic Porsche 911 before it got bloated. So bought the 14060m in the end. The only feature I miss is the glide-lock.

Informative video. Thanks.

That’s my favorite too .. flow with class , if you want more of a statement then go for an SD43.. the Ceramic ones look like every other watch out there …16610 classic has a look of it’s own .

The newer ceramic Rolex GMTs and Subs are better in every way

Sadly a tool watch worn by people who work in the office and people who buy them put them in a draw 🤣😂👍👍

What you said on the 14060 is so dang true! Went tru full circle of modern Rolex n now back to the 14060! 😂

Great video bro, I just got my 14060m after turn down 124060 from AD. I got a late production random serial number 4 liners… after turn down few bad conditioned 2 liners, flat topped 4. I still trying to find a best solution for 14060m bracelet sizing (mine is about 6’5 inches)

For me, the 70 hour power reserve is why I'd go for the new one

came for bezel action comparison

114060 is probably the best rolex Submariner ever

The 124060 is the best Submariner in existence, but it is not perfect.

I find it a bit too large.

My ideal Submariner would be the 124060 specs (movement, glidelock, ceramic bezel, chromolight etc), with the case demenions of the 14060M.

Hopefully they do a 39mm Submariner for the 134060 coming out in 2030.

I have to disagree with at least some of your assessment. They tapered down the lugs on the 124060, but it’s still nothing like the 14060. Neither watch does a very great job of capturing the aesthetic of the pre-ceramic Sub. Not to say that’s a bad thing by any means, they’re all great in their own way; just how it is from my point of view.

The newest version has good proportions. It’s just all too big. They needed to go smaller with everything rather that increase the size from supercase.

i would choose the early version . . thanks for the vid

The 904L steel has been used by Rolex since 85 and their oyster steal percentage wise is almost exactly 904L. Omega experimented with that steel in 72. So, the 14060m is 904L steel. Just wanted to clarify.

I really enjoy your uploads as they are very honest and because I agree with the sentiments. I had a 14060m two line that I got brand new from an AD (£2000! Back then there were anniversary models in windows that no one wanted 🙈) and kept for 20 years. I sold it because it felt frail by today’s standards but really regret it now. I also have the 41 like you and it’s a great modern watch but I miss the one I had. The box yours came in is very different to the one I had. Maybe this box was introduced towards the end of production but I’m not sure it’s the original. Mine came with a silver anchor, a booklet about the history of the watch, paper warranty, a calendar and the box was covered in a darker green leather - the inside of the top and the inside of the bottom sides was exposed wood - the outer box was also completely different with a natural stone pattern. I think the ‘m’ meant that it was COSC certified although the dial text didn’t mention it as with the date version at the time. Keep uploading and thank you for your insights - it’s good to see someone talking about the shortcomings instead of just gushing praise. Great watches but not perfect - what is?

The 124060 is like a fat woman with skinny legs..

“I don’t look at my watch to tell time”— What???

Fantastic video! Maybe the best out there on the no date sub.

Wonderful job, no BS, no flashy B roll, music. Just pure knowledge and true user feedback.

Lol. Love the video. Love the remarks “you buy a 14060m when you know about Rolex. When you have try all of them you can back to the submariner no date two lines”. That is me right now. Searching for that 14060m. Thank you for sharing.

For me 36mm Day Date in platinum is the best

Love the content, and subscribed! I was fortunate to get the call, a few days ago, and picked up the 126610LN!!
Great comparison of the three models!!!

First high end watch review where the poster swears the whole time like there a tough guy. What a tool!

Great informal style. Love it. Greetings from England. 👍🇬🇧

Great comparison, I love the new one but I hate that it has a 21mm lug width, it’s sad that the old one doesn’t have ceramic bezel

“”If it’s a dive watch, why would you need the date”? Then if you’re not diving, why would you need this watch?

So I watched this again last night. I’m really torn between getting a perfect condition 5 digit ( with engraved rehaut) and the new one. Still undecided even after watching this again. Great comparison… I guess time will tell

Ammm,soo...

And the sea dweller deep sea blue is the best of the series.

The amount of bullshit this guy is expelling is terrifying...

"I don't look at my watch to tell time.."

Honestly who at rolex thought it would be a good idea to in make the clasp bigger; and the dial too for that matter. All that was needed was to go back to the 14060m dimensions and make the bezel ceramic, maybe add a glide lock (unless that is the reason for the bigger clasp, then I'd say unnecessary).

Omg what have Rolex done. The case on the new sub is absolutely horrendous 🤮

yah i don't understand why the clasps keep getting bigger as well... these big watch brands must hate the asian market and their smaller wrist sizes. Shitty because most of their business is done in those markets

Had the seadweller 16600 bought the 114060 and with my large wrist this fits sooo much better and not too top heavy. All subjective I guess. All beauties

All beautiful. P.s. great review.

114060 is #1.
Ceramic bezel, glidelock, thinner clasp.
14060M in 2nd, then 124060 last.

The new model is the best Sub to date. The proportions are perfect. 124060 over the 114060 all day long!

I bought the Kermit 41, but that is also not new. I think it was 16 or 18, but not last year. I don’t wear it, I wear the gmt, even when it’s pretty much the same, like the black submariner except the 24 hour arrow, and the closing with that sliding for diving. My perfect watch is my jaeger, not enough people know it to mug me;)

I'm not sure about the new one. It appears that, rather than go back to thinner lugs and dump the maxi case, they simply upped the size of the watch/bezel and gave it a wider bracelet. Result - the lugs looks smaller. I'm not sure, however, that making the face of the watch bigger was the right way of going about it and yes, the face does look bigger compared to the outgoing 40mm
