The case is the standard 40mm Submariner Oyster with crown guards in 904L stainless steel. The sapphire crystal sits flat over the dial without a Cyclops magnifier — the date Submariner references carry the Cyclops; the no-date 14060 has no date window for it to magnify.

	The Triplock screw-down crown is the structural upgrade from the 5513's older Twinlock — three sealing points instead of two, supporting the 300m water-resistance rating. The bezel is a 24-hour bidirectional aluminium insert in all-black only — the no-date Submariner has never carried a coloured bezel.

	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 ~~across the surveyed corpus~~.
