Narrative:
Our takeoff roll began with all systems operating normally. During acceleration; the first officer's crosscheck revealed the captain had no indication of airspeed and a rejected takeoff was initiated. The first officer estimated the reject occurred at 60 KTS; based on his airspeed indicator; which was indicating normally. We advised ATC and exited the runway. We then accomplished all procedures for the reject; completed all checklists and taxied back to gate.
