That dial is pretty bad mate, I'm not an "expert" and hate to point out the obvious but the seconds markers shouldn't have that space and should run under the case, pearl looks decent, someone else can chime in..

-Cheers

On the upside bracelet and clasp look nice

I'm caught in a time warp...I have a few 14060 from 'Watchlover David' 13 or 15 years ago with the same dial with the round 'O' in rOlex where it should be Century Bold.

Mine came with pretty good cases, bracelets, and sapphire crystals but the bracelets had solid mid links like most of them did back then. I c/o the swiss 2836 in one a few years back and still wear it now and then.

The watch pictured also has a later type bracelet with the half link.

Here's a gen to compare with

 

 

I always notice the serifs on 'Oyster Perpetual' on the rep dial, automatico pointed out the wrong 'O' in Rolex. But the pearl looks ok and case and bracelet look fine to me- maybe trim the cgs- but that's typical on almost all subs.

If you want a 14060 no date, I'd go for it, Maybe some day you can get a better dial. At some point you have to give up being picky and just enjoy the watch! Don't forget, it's only a rep.
