That intro is the ultimate, I can't remember seeing anything near to it on TH-cam before, TGV you keep raising the bar, I'm so excited about your future productions. Nice review of the slightly Unknown Rolex Milgauss albeit popular amongst enthusiast.
The Milgauss has been my favourite Rolex for a while. It's the cleanliness of design with a couple of little quirks to sparkle. Refined, yet slightly eccentric. Love it.
I've always been a fan of the Milgauss, so this was a real treat! If I had the financial means to own one, the blue dial would be my choice. The most underrated Rolex has got to be the Oysterquartz datejust. I think they have a lot to offer, yet nobody wants them.. Looking forward to the next one. Regards, Koen
So pleased to hear that Koen. YESSSSS the Oysterquartz, my first Rolex no less!!!! Got it for a steal, but these days they are getting rare to find a good one and the prices are slowly growing. Great nomination! Thank you my friend, Best regards, TGV
I’m 14 years old and have recently got into watches and I have saved my money over a summer job and winter break and I’m really torn between the stowa Flieger verus and the Klassik or even if there are any other better Fliegers for the price out there. Best regards, Lance
Hello Lance, great to hear from young Gentry! Mmmmm, I love the choices, I adore both but I would go for the Flieger, it's their most iconic watch and more versatile IMO. But it's win win, so go with your heart, you will love both! Thank you, keep me posted, I would love to hear how it turns out. Best regards, TGV
Hi Lance, take a look at Fortis watches. They have a lot of Flieger watches. The brand offers very good quality at moderate prices and also has a history. Hanhart and Laco also have good Flieger watches. greetings René
I like laco much better over stowa. It has the more accurate case shape of original fliegers which happen to be my favorite style of watch along with dive watches
Everything about this presentation says 'class' The intro, your jacket, the history you researched about this piece. I can see already its going to be a great year to be on board with you. Don't forget us po' folks ! Regards from Canada.
I've always liked the modern Milgauss models. To me they show a side of Rolex that we never see: the fun, more eccentric side. It's definitely unlike Rolex to have a bright lightning bolt for a seconds hand on one of their watches! As for most underappreciated Rolex, how about the Cellini models?
I own the black dial green glass Milly and it’s definitely one of my favorite pieces. I only wear it on special occasions because it’s a tad big. I think I’m going to pick up the white dial next.
Great video as usual! I have had a non-gv black dial Milly for a few years now, it's become my go to watch, which has turned me into a one watch collection man. One day it will go to my grandson, until then it'll be on my wrist everyday. Keep up the good work TGV👍
another absolutely wonderful video with an out of this world intro this Milgauss is my most favorite Rolex, that second hand is bold, unique and it's something different from other Rolex, I just in love with the tooltastic of this Milgauss
Amazing level-up on the Intro! Was that Sir Ian McKellen? I've never paid much attention to the Milgauss before, and didn't realize the cold war tie-in of the original Milgauss suggested by the intro.
I've always considered the milgauss to be a similar watch to the air king - slightly quirky and something a little different to the usual sub or explorer. Vintage versions of both are a very appealing buy - I think I'd take the air king on balance.
What the hell! Been watching your channel for months now waiting for you to make a milgauss video since it has been my favorite entry level rolex. So I bought it 2 days ago from an AD. And now you make a video! The joy!
I have had my eye out for this watch for a while and was fortunate enough to find one at my AD in August 2020. I gave a wish list of watches to my AD, and this one was on it. He told me that he had one that I could have. It had been put on layaway about 3 years earlier by someone who never picked it up. It was new in the box with stickers. I love it.
Loved the intro!! That is a good looking watch! I know lightening bolt second hand is one of the Milgauss's defining features, however, I'd prefer a regular second hand similar to what was on the much older references. Great video! Cheers.
One of Rolex's more risky designs (along w/ the modern AirKing): I really dig it with this white dial. Its likely competitor: The Omega Seamaster AquaTerra, crushes it w/ 15,000 gauss rating, however.
The modern Milgaus has far more than Milgaus level protection, due to the material the mainspring is now made from, which Tim Mosso mentioned, and said it would make it as anti magnetic as a Rail master or any other Omega watch. Essentially making the Milgaus A magnetic the same as Omega.
@@Seven77-JTTW I recently had MRI scans on my face, neck and chest. I was going to wear. My Milgaus Z-Blue, then I thought, 'this really doesn't matter, as I have tonsil and lymph node cancer' . Aha. Plus I thought my watch might get ripped off my arm.
Great video love your channel. In decisive between a Milgauss or A Air King witch one would you choose as a one and done keep up the good work & happy holidays . Alex from Rockaway NY
A great video on my favourite watch TGV! Another interesting feature of the original Milgauss refs is the dial - It's 2.5 times thicker than other rolex models from the period and the surface "honeycomb" pattern was a deliberate feature to maximise magnetic field dissipation. Rolex really thought of everything back in the day!
You have the best intros I have seen here on youtube. Really creative. BTW, I hate the tint on the Milgauss, there are models before it but not sure how old they are. I wish they would make 38mm models again. Having a 6.75-inch wrist is a bummer for me.
Laid up with COVID watching ur vids! This one is pure class. The most lovely watch I could never wear due to its heft. I heard that the green sapphire is so hard to make that Rolex neither patented it nor etched in the Rolex crown. Thanks TGV; brilliant!
After living through the 1990s in Dallas, TX, where it seemed every billboard had a Rolex ad, I grew to detest the thought of owning a Rolex. But that has all changed since I saw the Milgauss. and now it's one of my grail watches. Love, love, love it, either the black dial (the sensible 66y/o me) or the Electric Blue dial (the inner 30y/o me). Simply beautiful!
👍’s up for your review. In the last 4 years I’ve focused on the ‘hard to get’ current Rolex steel Professional models. I’ve always liked the Milgauss white dial and viewed many TH-cam reviews/monitored the pre-owned market looking for the right example to add to my collection. I’ve just purchased a 2008 unworn, stickered, box/papers+original receipt that was kept in a safe by the original purchaser - an absolute beauty for🇬🇧£8,200🤩
Finally a Rolex I like beside the Explorer! This white dial Milgauss looks georgeous! The Lightningbolt seconds hand is amazing! For me case size is too small (everything below 42mm looks too small for me)
I like it a lot! Except for the fact that I recently got a two-tone Yachtmaster I would be wearing it everyday. It is heavier than a Datejust or Yachtmaster so check the weight before you buy one
Linking in my cousin, GJS. The Milgauss is his favourite in the Rolex SS lineup! I’m sure he’ll appreciate the in-depth review. Many thanks TGV! CWT 🇬🇧
I have the Black GV and it's stunning. The bracelets on these watches elevate the watches just slightly to add a bit of flare under the cuff that it will do well in a nice evening out. I love this watch, such a true gem because it's not immediately identifiable like their ceramic bezel cousins which can be too blingy for me at time.
My father owns one of the blue faced Milgauss with the green-tinted crystal. I think it is one of his best looking watches.....and he has many many gorgeous pieces. It is a great look, wears very comfortably, and is just a great all-arounder. Pity our wrists are different sizes, because I don't get to play with it. And having a watch that can't be magnetized certainly is a great thing....having just suffered the delivery of a watch running so fast at start up that within 30 minutes of winding it up it was 5 minutes fast and got worse. Great review sir. Thank you once again.
Every time I take out my GV Milgauss, I play the intro to this video. Puts me in the proper headspace.. Gives a sense of purpose as if you are going to change the world. Wearing the milgauss in the laboratory feels as appropriate as the omega speedmaster in the Apollo command module. An absolute stunner!
Are all versions of the MilGauss discontinued or just select versions? I love the MilGauss. It's my favorite Rolex. Another wonderful intro and video! Thank you, TGV, for all you are and all you do for us Gentry. Onwards and Upwards!🙂♥️
Wonderful intro once again. Dammit TGV, you keep turning me on to watches I never knew I liked. The only negative for me is the bolt second hand which doesn't seem to the match the refined elegance of the rest of the piece.
Great review as always! Agree that a smaller size would suit the Milgauss better and the reason I’m more drawn to the 36mm Oyster Perpetual. I’ve always enjoyed the underrated /understated feel of my 34mm Air King 5500.
FINALLY! I've been waiting for a Milgauss review forever. Been tempted by the blue dial for some time now, but i needed to see your thoughts on it. Thanks brother.
I really enjoyed this presentation. I know many Gentry did not warm to the WatchBox era, but TGV always brings quality to his vids. Happy that Golden Age presentations are back now.
Great video. Did the reintroduction of the Milgauss have anything to do with IWC updating the Ingenieur? (BTW: looking especially dapper this time out.)
I love this watch. It does so many things right. It’s hotter than blue blazes! That being said I would have to get the blue dial version ! Great vid TGV 💪🏼
Congratulations on mounting your Katana correctly, ie; blade up and handle to the right. Not many people know the reason behind this. The Milguass is actually a grail of mine so I loved this video, it was beautifully shot.
Great video! If you don’t mind, could you tell me the height and diameter of the face of your TGV signet ring? I’m trying to get a signet ring for myself.
I really enjoyed this one TGV, thanks for the video! What books would you recommend for someone who is interested in the history of horology & wristwatches?
The 116400GV Z Blue Milgauss is my grail watch. I picked it up in 2014 when the blue dial came out. It's Currently my favorite watch! wear it all the time. Good Video!
This version is close to the aesthetic of what our often wished-for Explorer "Alpine" would be. I never appreciated the white one until this brilliant TGV video, shot in Ulra HD . . it's just like being there, thanks TGV! ( PS Those are some nice threads, brother! )
Great review! I'm looking to buy my first entry-level Rolex. Which would you suggest between the explorer, Date-just and Milgauss for everyday use? I'm a firefighter and I would be wearing the watch every single day and putting it to great use.
A little off topic, but a late thank you for turning me on to Sinn. Picked up a Sinn 903 for Christmas, then, for no other reason than I wanted it, my Sinn 104 I St Sa with blue dial came in last week. I am in love with both of them.
I love the playfulness of this model. The hands are eccentric and somewhat humorous as well. May be, wearing a luxury watch that can 'laugh at itself' and doesn't take itself seriously might be the biggest 'flex'. True baller!
I have the same watch but in all black with the green tint but mines Stopes working after 4 hours and you have to move it so it works idk if I have something wrong with it or something happened that I don't know
Can you please review the SEIKO SRPB91. I e seen a few requests of this watch to be reviewed in the comment section for a while now yet it hasn’t been reviewed
The best opening sequence yet. Brilliant. As for the Milgauss, you're spot on, TGV, and so glad you didn't neglect to mention the black frames on those hour markers that gives the dial a subtle weight and makes the white dial feel almost enamel-like. I have a late-model Air-King (34mm) with a white dial and the same black-framed creamy-lumed baton hour markers (and black Arabic 3-6-9). Something about those 'candy-bars' that makes me swoon.
Great video as usual. Love the cocktail bar piano music 🍸🎹. I've always loved the Milgauss and is one of the 3 Rolex's if I had/was willing to spend the money on I would get (the other 2 being the Polar Explorer 2 and a vintage Airking). Stunning watches.
When I first saw the Milgauss, I didn't get it at all. I thought the orange lightning bolt looked way out of place for a Rolex. Then I learn about why it was made, and who was intended to wear it, and I was blown away. I like science quite a bit so I really connected with it. I think that the Milgauss would be my favorite Rolex, even if I owned way pricier models.
The lightning bolt second hand KILLS this watch as a choice, for me. A straight shaft option with that terrific end tip arrow would be PERFECT, for me. Polished, highly reflective dark gray minute and hour hands would be cream on the cake.
TGV - I'm a big fan and your vids are always a go to! As hard as it is for me to refrain from talking entirely watches... my main question is - what is the sublime track used at 9:35?! I'm a DJ and need this information as it's inspired me to construct my latest mix. Help a Gent out :-) P.S. I was very close to buying a Milgauss a few years back, perfection IMO!
I'd love to see a review of a Grand Seiko with the 9F quartz movement. Aspetterò con impazienza il tuo prossimo video, sei il migliore 👍🏻 @The Urban Gentry
I owned one for a while. The bracelet is hard to size as there is no micro adjust or half links. They are lovely watches but due to the high polish they are scratch magnets and make you paranoid all the time. They keep good time though.

The milgauss will and always will be my favorite watch in my collection. Thank you for making me feel sane for owning one.

So pleased to hear that Koen.
YESSSSS the Oysterquartz, my first Rolex no less!!!!
Got it for a steal, but these days they are getting rare to find a good one and the prices are slowly growing.
Great nomination!
Thank you my friend,
Best regards,
TGV
One of my absolute favourites. If feel like I've been waiting forever for this review. Thank you!
I’ve always liked the Milgauss - although I’ve never understood why Rolex has not reissued the 1956 model, which is a real stunner!
I think they didnt want to remember that it was rotating bezel watch, almost a twin to the sub. Don't want steal the thunder of it or the GMT
TGV, your editing on the intros just keeps getting better! Is that even possible?! I was kind of entranced and speechless after this one.
I’m 14 years old and have recently got into watches and I have saved my money over a summer job and winter break and I’m really torn between the stowa Flieger verus and the Klassik or even if there are any other better Fliegers for the price out there.
Best regards,
Lance
Hello Lance, great to hear from young Gentry!
Mmmmm, I love the choices, I adore both but I would go for the Flieger, it's their most iconic watch and more versatile IMO.
But it's win win, so go with your heart, you will love both!
Thank you, keep me posted, I would love to hear how it turns out.
Best regards,
TGV
Ok I will!
The stowa flieger with the grey sunburt dial is also a great and even more versatile option!
Hi Lance,
take a look at Fortis watches. They have a lot of Flieger watches. The brand offers very good quality at moderate prices and also has a history.
Hanhart and Laco also have good Flieger watches.
greetings
René
I like laco much better over stowa. It has the more accurate case shape of original fliegers which happen to be my favorite style of watch along with dive watches
I love the practical quirkiness of the Milgauss. Thank you for presenting it with the respect it deserves.
Absolutely amazing intro. I can only imagine how many hours that went into it. Bravo
Thanks for branching out and reviewing models that a lot of the other watch review channels seem to ignore. Bravo!
As a mechanical engineer, this is my dream watch. I know its legacy and its worth.
Everything about this presentation says 'class' The intro, your jacket, the history you researched about this piece. I can see already its going to be a great year to be on board with you. Don't forget us po' folks ! Regards from Canada.
I think Canada won't be forgotten in the interim and I don't think it will be due to Rolex.

Wonderful content as usual.....
Your voice-over and video work while describing watches is second to none!
Thanks as I look forward to more....

A great video on my favourite watch TGV!

Could be films in themself.

White face only I believe and possibly the black face without the green glass. 116400gv in black face and the blue are currently available.
My retire from the military gift to myself... 10 more years! Milgauss has been a dream forever.
Wonderful intro once again. Dammit TGV, you keep turning me on to watches I never knew I liked. The only negative for me is the bolt second hand which doesn't seem to the match the refined elegance of the rest of the piece.
I just found you channel a few weeks ago. I really am learning a ton and appreciate your reviews.
Sir, your intros just keep getting better and better. This one gave me chills. You deserve an oscar, I'm not even kidding.
Great review as always! Agree that a smaller size would suit the Milgauss better and the reason I’m more drawn to the 36mm Oyster Perpetual. I’ve always enjoyed the underrated /understated feel of my 34mm Air King 5500.
The thinking man’s Rolex.
FINALLY! I've been waiting for a Milgauss review forever. Been tempted by the blue dial for some time now, but i needed to see your thoughts on it. Thanks brother.
I saw the z-blue in person this past summer and pictures just do not do it justice, absolutely stunning. Looking back I should have picked it up.
I really enjoyed this presentation. I know many Gentry did not warm to the WatchBox era, but TGV always brings quality to his vids. Happy that Golden Age presentations are back now.

A little off topic, but a late thank you for turning me on to Sinn. Picked up a Sinn 903 for Christmas, then, for no other reason than I wanted it, my Sinn 104 I St Sa with blue dial came in last week. I am in love with both of them.
Class video as always! Have you made a video reviewing or detailing that Audemars Piguet by any chance? It's simply stunning
Fantastic video TGV. I’d much rather have a White OP over the milgauss. It can fly under the radar, it’s much more elegant and that dial is stunning.
I love the playfulness of this model. The hands are eccentric and somewhat humorous as well. May be, wearing a luxury watch that can 'laugh at itself' and doesn't take itself seriously might be the biggest 'flex'. True baller!

Your intro is second to none on TH-cam. 👍
Great video as always. 👍
I do love a Milgauss, very underrated and sadly hated model. How are you feeling T?
...he put out a 15 minute video about how he feels on the watch.
Hated? Really? By whom?
It'a cool piece! Such a shame they discontinued the white-dialed version.
i haven't even finished the intro, and i have to stop
i have no right to expect cinema this good from a wristwatch channel
(ps / i now continue)
Jesus that intro. You’ve outdone yourself, TGV. Thank you.
Wow, awesome intro. I'm going to watch it again after posting this. As for the Milgauss, absolutely love it. My favorite Roex.
TGVs intros are better than some brand's advertisements. 🙏💪
Can you please review the SEIKO SRPB91. I e seen a few requests of this watch to be reviewed in the comment section for a while now yet it hasn’t been reviewed
Excellent work chap. Would love to see a review on the Rolex Explorer 2 16570 polar since you have a lot of content on the Explorer 1. Thank you
The best opening sequence yet. Brilliant.
As for the Milgauss, you're spot on, TGV, and so glad you didn't neglect to mention the black frames on those hour markers that gives the dial a subtle weight and makes the white dial feel almost enamel-like. I have a late-model Air-King (34mm) with a white dial and the same black-framed creamy-lumed baton hour markers (and black Arabic 3-6-9). Something about those 'candy-bars' that makes me swoon.
Thank you David :D
Best regards,
TGV
Not sure if it's underrated . It is super rare and price is growing all the time .
Its not rare. There are hundreds available on chrono 24 alone as we speak and at very affordable prices.
Great video as usual. Love the cocktail bar piano music 🍸🎹. I've always loved the Milgauss and is one of the 3 Rolex's if I had/was willing to spend the money on I would get (the other 2 being the Polar Explorer 2 and a vintage Airking). Stunning watches.
Once more super awesome show! What do you think about the "baltic aquascaphe"? Cheers from Switzerland
When I first saw the Milgauss, I didn't get it at all. I thought the orange lightning bolt looked way out of place for a Rolex. Then I learn about why it was made, and who was intended to wear it, and I was blown away. I like science quite a bit so I really connected with it. I think that the Milgauss would be my favorite Rolex, even if I owned way pricier models.
I love this white dial 🤩for me the most underrated Rolex is air King 👍

The lightning bolt second hand KILLS this watch as a choice, for me. A straight shaft option with that terrific end tip arrow would be PERFECT, for me. Polished, highly reflective dark gray minute and hour hands would be cream on the cake.
TGV - I'm a big fan and your vids are always a go to! As hard as it is for me to refrain from talking entirely watches... my main question is - what is the sublime track used at 9:35?! I'm a DJ and need this information as it's inspired me to construct my latest mix. Help a Gent out :-)
P.S. I was very close to buying a Milgauss a few years back, perfection IMO!
I'd love to see a review of a Grand Seiko with the 9F quartz movement. Aspetterò con impazienza il tuo prossimo video, sei il migliore 👍🏻 @The Urban Gentry
I owned one for a while. The bracelet is hard to size as there is no micro adjust or half links. They are lovely watches but due to the high polish they are scratch magnets and make you paranoid all the time. They keep good time though.
I am now waiting for your videos more because of these intros that you make ,rather than the watches itselfs
