The Rolex Submariner 14060M gives you the no-date dial at its cleanest, in the slimmer case proportions that preceded the ceramic-bezel generation. Its aluminum bezel insert, drilled lugs, and stamped bracelet clasp make it feel distinctly different from a modern Submariner—not less capable, just less substantial on the wrist.

Introduced around 2000, the 14060M replaced the 14060, bringing the 3130 movement beneath a largely unchanged exterior. The useful dividing line is the dial: early two-line examples keep the lower half spare, while later four-line watches add the chronometer certification text. Neither is the wrong choice; it depends whether you prefer visual restraint or the fuller, familiar Rolex signature.

One detail worth checking is the bezel insert: replacement inserts can change the character of the numerals and luminous pearl. And despite its older-school construction, this reference belongs to the sapphire-crystal, luminous-paint era—don’t mistake it for a tritium-dial Submariner.

What owners love

The no-date dial feels balanced and uncluttered, with no Cyclops interrupting the view. Owners often favor the earlier two-line dial for its sparseness, though later four-line versions have their own following.
The narrower lugs and crown guards give it a less blocky feel than the later ceramic Submariners. At 40mm, it sits neatly on the wrist without feeling like a small watch.
The aluminum bezel insert and light bracelet give it a more understated, easy-wearing character than newer Subs. Owners who keep one for years often like precisely the older-fashioned feel that others criticize.

Common Criticisms

The stamped clasp and hollow center links can feel rattly and surprisingly flimsy if you're coming from a modern Rolex bracelet. The clasp is functional, but its feel is a recurring complaint.
There’s no Glidelock adjustment, so getting the fit right as your wrist expands takes more fiddling than on a newer Sub. Moving the clasp’s micro-adjustment requires a tool rather than a quick adjustment on the wrist.
