The purist's Submariner, and the one people regret not buying.

The 124060 is the no-date Submariner as Rolex redrew it in 2020: 41 mm rather than 40, with slimmer lugs and a slightly narrower bracelet than the reference it replaced, on calibre 3230 with about 70 hours of reserve.

Losing the date loses the Cyclops with it, which is the actual argument. The crystal is flat and unbroken, the dial is symmetrical, and the watch reads as a tool rather than a dress watch pretending to be one. It is the version most collectors end up preferring and the version fewer people buy first.

It is a current production reference, which in Rolex terms still means a waiting list rather than a shelf. Tell us whether you want unworn or would take a good used example, and whether the earlier 114060 would do, and we will tell you what that does to the timing.

Other Rolex watches requested

Each page is a guide to the reference and how we source it, not a listing. If yours is not here, ask anyway.

Sourced to your brief, itemised before you decide

Nothing on this page is stock. The no-date Submariner is a current reference, which still means a list rather than a shelf.

The brief

Unworn or worn, and whether the current 41 mm 124060 specifically or the earlier 40 mm 114060 would do. The two wear noticeably differently.

Availability and timing

Confirmed for each request from our network. The no-date is asked for less often than the date version, which usually works in your favour.

What accompanies the watch

Box, warranty card, booklets, tags and spare links are itemised for the individual watch we propose.

Condition and documents

Condition of the bezel insert, the bracelet stretch and the clasp are set out along with service history and any verification arrangements you want made.

Every request begins with a conversation: in London, or wherever you are.

Four steps, no pressure

  1. Brief

    Send the reference by WhatsApp or the form, with the dial, set and timing that matter to you. A collection or a style is enough to begin.

  2. Source

    We go to our network rather than a boutique list, and come back with what is realistic on availability and timing before you commit to anything.

  3. Verify

    Condition, documents and what accompanies the watch are set out in writing for the individual piece we propose. You decide with the details in front of you.

  4. Settle and deliver

    Bank transfer in any major currency, or crypto. Collection in London or fully insured delivery, agreed for the watch and the destination.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between the 124060 and the 114060?

The 114060 is 40 mm with broader lugs, on calibre 3130 with about 48 hours of reserve. The 124060 replaced it in 2020 at 41 mm with slimmer lugs, on calibre 3230 with about 70 hours.

Does the no-date version cost less?

At retail it is the cheaper of the two. On the secondary market the gap narrows and sometimes closes, because it is made in smaller numbers and has a following of its own.

Is the bracelet adjustable without tools?

Yes. The Glidelock extension in the clasp adjusts in 2 mm steps across roughly 20 mm, which is enough to go over a wetsuit cuff or to allow for a warm day.

How long does it take to source one?

It depends on the configuration and how specific the brief is. We tell you what is realistic at the start rather than quote a number we cannot keep.

Can I pay in crypto?

Yes. Bank transfer in any major currency, or crypto; Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum, USDT and other major coins and stablecoins are accepted. The coin, network and amount are confirmed with you before any transfer.

Tell us the watch you have in mind

An exact reference or an idea is enough to start the conversation. We will take care of the search and discuss the options with you.
