Rolex Submariner "No-Date" 14060 2001 [Preowned]

Overview 

The Rolex Submariner No Date 14060M from 2001 is a revered icon in the world of high end sport watches, representing a defining chapter in Rolex’s dive watch legacy. As a discontinued model, it holds a special place among collectors and is often celebrated as a neo-vintage timepiece. Its 40mm stainless steel case, paired with a robust Oyster bracelet, is designed for durability and versatility. Notably, the 14060M features a slimmer case profile compared to modern Submariner models, making it an ideal choice for those with smaller wrists or anyone seeking a more understated, comfortable fit. The absence of a date complication enhances the dial’s clean, symmetrical design, emphasizing its timeless and functional appeal.

At the heart of the Submariner 14060M lies Rolex’s Caliber 3130, a self-winding mechanical movement renowned for its reliability and precision. The watch is equipped with a unidirectional rotatable bezel, featuring a black aluminum insert—a hallmark of its era. Unlike the ceramic bezels found on modern Submariners, the aluminum bezel develops a unique character and patina over time, adding to the watch’s individuality and vintage charm. With water resistance up to 300 meters and a Triplock winding crown, this watch is built to perform in the most demanding conditions. Its black dial, adorned with luminous hour markers and Mercedes-style hands, ensures exceptional legibility.

The Submariner No Date 14060M is more than just a tool watch; it’s a symbol of Rolex’s enduring legacy and a bridge between vintage and modern design. Its slimmer case and classic proportions make it a standout choice for those who appreciate the elegance of older Rolex models while still benefiting from the robustness of a relatively modern timepiece. The polished and brushed finishes on the case and bracelet add a touch of refinement, making it suitable for both casual and formal settings. This balance of practicality, comfort, and timeless style has solidified its reputation as one of the most wearable Submariners ever produced.

As a discontinued model, the Rolex Submariner No Date 14060M has become increasingly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Its neo-vintage status, combined with its slimmer case design and classic aesthetics, makes it a standout in the Submariner lineage. The aluminum bezel, which ages gracefully and develops a unique patina, sets it apart from the ceramic bezels of modern Submariners, adding to its charm and collectibility. For those with smaller wrists or a preference for understated proportions, the 14060M offers a perfect blend of comfort and iconic design. Whether you’re drawn to its historical significance, its evolving character, or its connection to Rolex’s storied past, the 14060M is a timeless piece that continues to captivate watch lovers around the world.
