	The 14060 is the first sapphire-era no-date Submariner, the bridge between the long-running [[Reference:5513\|5513]] (acrylic, 200m, no date) and the modern ceramic line. Production runs 1989 to 1999. Caliber 3000 carries 27 jewels and 28,800 vph with hacking seconds, and no quickset, because there is no date to set.

Mark 1 dials (1989 to approximately 1997/98) carry "SWISS – T<25" tritium lume text, aging to a cream-to-warm-beige patina on the lume plots.

	The 14060 trades primarily on the dealer market. Standard tritium examples cluster across the modest USD 6,000–10,000 band depending on dial-state originality, paperwork, and case condition. Late "Swiss only" transitional dials sit above the standard market when authenticated. Full-set examples with box, warranty, and matching clasp dates carry meaningful premiums — the box-and-papers spread is the main pricing driver.		The 14060 trades primarily on the dealer market.
