S60 Owner's Manual (contains line drawings with dimensions): http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/TCP42S60.PDF
S60 E-Help Manual (that's built into the TV): http://service.us.panasonic.com/OPERMANPDF/E-HELP_S60.PDF
There is also a limited-run Costco/Sams Club version of the S60 called the S64 series that is exactly the same as the S60 series, but simply adds the Anti-Reflective Louver Filter from the higher-end ST60/VT60 models. The S64 is only available in 50" and 65" screen sizes:

Quick way to Check the Hours Used Via the regular User Menu (same for all 2013 models):
Go to Menu > Help > Version > and scroll down to Status4. On that line you'll see a letter A or B or C followed by a 4-digit number which is the number of hours. A0039-0000 for instance would be 39 hours. C1926-00000 would be 1,926 hours.
