One of my favorite Tudors and divers of all time. Tudor needs to bring this exact model back but with all the upgrades. Some say that’s the Pelagos 39, and while it looks somewhat like it, it’s not the same. I was shopping for one but good examples are all around $10k. That’s more than I’m willing to pay for an old diver

Great video, I know nobody asked me, but that movement is not from Tudor, everything other than the rotor weight is a basic eta cal, Tudor always has gold incablocs or kifs on balance, and has Tudor branding on top of the plate under the dial. Some watchmaker at some point might have swapped it, and even went extra miles to perlage the plates on this one. Auto module plate carry engravings as well.

Glad for you that you have work coming in. It is just that I do not even like Rolex. So the poor man's Rolex - Tudor - is not going to fascinate me. I am more into complications and am still waiting to see a perpetual calendar serviced on KZread, though not the "perpetual" that Rolex have advertised for the last 70 years or so 🤪🤪🤪.

I bought one of these around 2006 for £750. I loved the watch and had it serviced. It ran fine but after a couple of years was losing 30 sec per day. I was concerned that in the future it may become impossible to get parts. This particular calibre was exclusive to Tudor. If I'm correct this model of Tudor only ran until about 1975. So a very short production run. I foolishly sold the watch around 2008 for £1000. Big mistake.

How often should I service my 14060m I have had since 05? I recently got it serviced this past summer and I wear it everyday and sometimes I wear my BB58 but the sub stays on pretty much all day everyday. How often should I get this BB58 serviced if I wear it every now and again?

Thank you very much for the information. It is well needed because I hadn’t serviced my 14060m in almost 20 years and noticed it would stop from time to time but after service it is like new. Ok, last question. What should the time grapher read for the 14060m and the BB58 if all is well?
