	Caliber 3130 is an automatic no-date movement with COSC chronometer certification, running at 28,800 vph and storing about 48 hours of power reserve. The same caliber powered the late 14060M, so the movement is carryover rather than new. Regulation is handled by a Parachrom blue hairspring — Rolex's paramagnetic alloy spring, more resistant to magnetic fields, temperature change, and shock than a traditional spring — together with Microstella regulating nuts on the balance.

	The 114060 dial has four printed lines below the hands: “SUBMARINER,” the depth rating, and “SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED.” It has no date window or Cyclops, but it is not a two-line dial. The four-line arrangement continues the chronometer wording used on the 14060M while keeping the symmetrical no-date layout.

			All markers and hands use Chromalight, Rolex's long-emission lume, which glows blue where the older Super-LumiNova glowed green. Forum reports give a wide range of afterglow depending on prior light exposure, so lume duration is not a fixed specification. The "SWISS MADE" text sits at 6 o'clock.

It keeps the symmetrical no-date layout, but it does not return to the sparse 2-line lower dial of the original 14060 or early 14060M. The clean look comes from the absence of a date window and Cyclops, not from the absence of chronometer text. The 114060 is COSC-certified but does not announce the fact on the dial. That places it in an unusual position in Submariner history: the original 14060 carried a 2-line dial because it was not COSC-certified; the late 14060M carried a 4-line dial because it was certified and Rolex wanted to say so; the 114060 carries a 2-line dial despite being certified. The layout is a design choice, not a specification limitation.

	The bezel is unidirectional with a black insert in Cerachrom, Rolex's proprietary ceramic. It resists scratching, does not fade under UV, and should read the same in twenty years as it does new. Numerals and graduation marks are filled with platinum applied by PVD, a silver-grey that catches light cleanly against the black.

	Flat sapphire crystal, no Cyclops — the defining visual difference between the no-date 114060 and the date-equipped 116610LN. The flat crystal gives the 114060 a symmetrical face with no magnifier bump at 3 o'clock. The crown is the Triplock screw-down, carried over from the 14060M and rated to 300m.
