Keep in mind that the dash models are often improvements based on consumer experience.

Yup, not all "dashes" are bad. Sometimes the dash indicates a barrel length or other variations from the base model as is the case with the 60-8 and the 60-4.
When it comes to the snubby model 60, I'll take a 60-7 over a no dash any day.
The 60-7 was the pinnacle of exposed hammer, .38, stainless, J-frame snubs.
For some models though, the dashes are all downhill. An example would be the 640.
