If you want a heavier gun the model 60 definately is. Is it better? Personal preference. Did the 642 have the internal lock? The 60 doesn't so that is a plus. Overall, yes I would trade even up or even add some boot. Not sure when the 60 went to .357 mag.
The last "Dash" model for the model 60 before going to .357 is the "Dash"-7. The -7 changes were the wider front and rear sight.
