Love the black dial GV.... it is noticeably thicker so there is a nice wrist presence. The polished center links just makes this a cool looking watch next to the green sapphire. It's so fun to wear, I can't stop looking at it. And when it lumes, the 3, 6, 9 are blue'r and just gives it another dimension. I wish I could wear this out more often but I mostly just pull it out and gaze at it.
it's even moar shocking that an electrical engineer can afford this... y'all must be getting paid lots. hahahaha i'm doing something wrong w/ my engg degree.
My wife and I bought each other new Rolex watches for our 20th anniversary back in 2014 and 11-years-later the Milgauss GV remains the best watch I’ve ever owned. This is dressy enough for formal settings, casual enough for a bathing suit and perfectly matching everything in between. I love it.
I own a number of Rolex watches that please me greatly. I collected my Z blue milguass last Sunday from my AD. I must say that this watch is special, it's a must have if you collect watches. Will it be discontinued next month? if Rolex pull the plug on this one, the watch will be an instant must have classic. Absolutely fabulous in every way. Best of luck getting one.
I was choosing between “air king”, “black milgauss” and “z blue milgauss”. The black milgauss looked nice but I picked the z blue one at the end as I thought it’s more difficult to get the blue one. It’s growing on me. Looks much better then hyped OP.
Hi there. Did you pick it up this year, or are you referring to a previous event? I am on the list for the z blue but have not heard back yet and I was wondering if anyone has actually received one from an AD this year. Great choice by the way, the milgauss is stunning with the green crystal, blue dial and unique dial/hands. Regards
@@RA-lc5ed I think both are different in character. Milgauss is more mature but less than date just. It’s like tool (professional) version of OP with cool second hand. Air king is more cool and fun watch with bang of your bucks (if you compare as rolex standard). Either one is cool. I will definitely get air king if I have a chance in my collection.
I am hoping I receive that magical call from my local AD this year for a Z-Blue…I passed up on a black face Milgauss last summer and I’m now regretting it. I keep reading about a possible discontinuation of this model and I’m worried I’ll miss the opportunity to find a new Z-Blue without paying secondary prices.
I love it. Always found it interesting but would go for something else. Then I got one and it is my favorite in the collection. So much going on with it. Looks amazing in daylight.
I love it. I remember seeing it in a magazine over 10 years ago and wish I bought one then. I just didn't follow it up and prioritise it. I could have pushed to afford it. Now I really want one bad.
I tried on the Milgauss today, it is by far the most stunning Rolex I've ever seen, and no video or photo does it justice. You truly have to see it to believe it. The dial/crystal combination is unbelievable. The Milgauss is the crown jewel on the Rolex crown.
I know the green crystal is a milgauss thing, but i would love to see it on a polar explorer. Rolex could have done that for this year's explorer anniv as an LE watch
It's crazy how this watch grew on me. I'm going to get one but since I will buy it as my "everyday watch", don't you think that the black dial is the best choice? Don't get me wrong, the blue dial definitely looks fantastic too but it might not be a good fit with all colors of clothes. And since I already have a lot of "colored" watches such as the Hulk, rose gold YM, etc. I think that the black dial is probably the best choice for me. Any recommandation would be greatly appreciated as I'm really scratching my head around to make a choice :)
I opt for the black, not a fan of sunburst dial, whatever colour it may be. Also the black matt dial, much like the 4 digits divers which give a more muted looks which i d much prefer.
My dealer was telling me that a lot of celebrities began wearing this watch as it was considered to be a ‘everyday trash around watch’ he said this started a trend with this watch and they suddenly a lot more people where into them as they then became very cool. I’ve always loved this watch as someone who loves science and has created a career in medicine, this watch speaks to me.
I searched milgauss, video 1 says best watch ever, second video says worst video ever. I think it’s amazing because 1. The green edge is super 2. It’s SCIENCE
How i started seiko 5 Gshock Tudor black bay 58 Rolex datejust stainless And I finally about to buy my dream this millgauss I love the green. The datejust will fund some of it. Great video
I have a V serial GV milgauss and the orange 3, 6, and 9 indexes glow green instead of the blue seen in the video. I believe that the earlier black GV dials used superluminova for the orange markers instead of chromalight.
I was tossing between the blue and the black. Both are gorgeous. But I picked the black one in the end since the green crystal is more accentuated on the black dial. Plus the patina orange hue at 3, 6 and 9 o'clock complements the orange thunderbolt second needle. Just bought an orange Rubber B strap and swapped the steel bracelet and it looks stunning. With the blue dial, neither the blue nor the orange rubber strap lift the watch up
Honestly speaking I think most Rolex watches including the submariner are one of the most plain looking watches of the bunch and cant understand why they're so sought after(not talking about their $1million diamond encrusted stuff) but this Milgauss actually looks quite nice. Wouldn't mind seeing a gold 2 tone version
Love love love my white dial version … with an orange or orange & black Rubber B strap (Ala OysterFlex style) it feels like 3 watches in one without the high polish bracelet :) Should show all of them side by side if possible :) Future classic?, maybe 😅
I have a question (couldnt find the correct answer). So the modern milgauss came out in 2007. When did this model (black dial with green crystal) came out? And when did the Zblue w green crystal came out? Thanks
In 2007 the green crystal was released so thats when the black came out. But you could still get clear as well. 2014 was when the z-blue came out with the green.
Much rather have a this than a sub. I thought the green was part of the bezel or the chapter ring. But a green sapphire crystal? I researched and amazing! Their failure rate on these crystals is very high from what I’ve seen so the crystal itself is top notch for sure! (Lightning bolt is 🔥 just because it’s so anti Rolex
I was not a fan of it first. Didn’t like the lighting bold second hand either. Caught wind it might be discontinued so I impulsively bought one for investment purposes. Once I got it I fell in love! It is gorgeous and comfortable! Almost scared to wear it even haha
I finally tracked one down, my new explorer I took a 5ft fall face first on ceramic tile, I was expecting the sapphire to be busted it slammed to loud , but no the number 6 popped off . Easy fix but I’m going to trade up for the green sapphire Milgauss , similar but much more interesting
I'm with you on wishing it was all brushed... or, at least had more brushed surfaces than high polish. I would love to see something new that looks like their earlier milgaus models. However, I've noticed Rolex rarely looks back.. at least they never really do reissues or revivals.. I suppose they always evolve forwards and rarely look back.. I suppose they can get away with that as their designs are so classic and solid, they don't need to really change much if anything. Still, it would be nice to see old designs brought back to modern specs. But, anyways... this is all academic as I know I'm never going to get a Rolex the way they are these days and foreseeable future. Still, fun to discuss and talk about as that's about.
It’s weird they put an extra magnetism case to cover the movement, but the top side is still just sapphire and a dial magnetism can’t go through sapphire?

Most scientists agree 💯👍
The orange lightning bolt contrasting with the green sapphire makes this look absolutely splendid yet not traditional. Looks amazing.
Yes and the orange pops more against the black backing vs the green/teal backing. I like the green/teal but I prefer the orange to pop
This, for me, is one of their nicest looking watches. I love the quirkiness of it.
Absolutely! It's the only Rolex I own and like!!!
I did not like it at first because of the lightning second hand, but it grew on me and now it is probably my favorite Rolex. It is beautiful!
Love the black dial GV.... it is noticeably thicker so there is a nice wrist presence. The polished center links just makes this a cool looking watch next to the green sapphire.

Thing of beauty. What a watch, so underrated. Prices will fly up, get one while you can.
This watch GLOWS in the daylight!! As an electrical engineer this watch makes me smile every time I put it on. 😀
Civil engineer here and it makes me smile every time I see it knowing the technology that went into making it.

The Milgauss says more about the wearer than any other Rolex.
whats that supposed to mean buddy
I absolutely love this watch and would wear daily for life.

Love this piece 😍😍
Glad you like it!
Had the zblue version, then swapped it for this black and orange combo! Winning!

Milgauss is my favorite Rolex by far 👑👑👑💰💰💰
Absolutely stunning, love the second hand and green glass. 🙌🏽
Me too!!

I've never understood Rolex but I would own this watch it is beautiful and just quirky enough to not take it self too serious.
I love it. I remember seeing it in a magazine over 10 years ago and wish I bought one then. I just didn't follow it up and prioritise it. I could have pushed to afford it. Now I really want one bad.

My fav Rolex watch ❤
What a stunning watch, seriously!
It’s one of the best watch to have in collection. Especially GV Blue
the best modern sport rolex in term of design & personality. Especially the black one.
The only rolex that appeals to me! Always been a fan of this one.

Don't forget the white dial is very rare and classy looking. I believe it will be future collectible.
by far one of the watches i want the most right now love everything about it
very special watch!! love it
Absolutely beautiful dial.🤩

Absolute banger! Love this so much my favorite Rolex.
The blue will keep you staring at the watch. I promise.
Totally agree! I purchased the Z-Blue version a month ago and I can tell that the combination of the colors are mesmerizing.
The blue is amazing
It’s up there.
Have the black discontinued one with clear crystal (non GV) - and the etched logo in the crystal.
I would love to own this watch.
The Torquiise face looks pretty good tbh
It's an interesting look. Wish they made a smaller version. Too big for me
36mm would be perfect! well 37mm for me would be ideal but that's a rare size! But agree, shrink this thing!

this watch
beautiful watch ❤️💯👊🏻

The second hand is my favorite thing about this watch
One of my vehicles is a Ford F-150 "Lightning" and I want this watch! I will get put on a waiting list if I have to.

nice watch, but a bit think? not a fan of the lightning bolt. but if you want it brushed, with 3-6-9 and round indices.. then it would be an Explorer
