This comparison is excellent and still valid. I have the lug holed variant of the 16610 and the 14060M. Placed side by side, the differences slowly become apparent-but a micrometer might be necessary for some measurements.

Now-Read Paul Altieri's "Last of the Best" article on the 14060M. Owners might become
a bit more reluctant to part with their 14060M ref OR their 16610 ref: they have been discontinued. The 14060 M could be considered a modern 5513-with similar appearance-but 3130 movement vast improvement over the internals of the 5513.
but vastly improved
