Fantastic post Larry!
The watch you are showing seems to be a 14060 though, rather than a 14060 M.
As SOG Diver pointed out, the ‘M’ stood for modified and the newer movement was more accurate. It came with Chronometer certification, which the older 14060 never did, and of course the dial was marked “Superlative Chronometer, Officially Certified”!
I always preferred the No Date over the Date model. I think it’s about the best “tool” watch out there. When you add a date function, it starts to detract from legibility in low light, which is what these watches are about!
