Congrats, terrific Rolex choice! All of these Milgauss iterations I think are beautiful, but I also chose this one back in the day, and it's one of my Rolexes that get the most wrist time! ;-) Enjoy thoroughly.
This one here arrived few days ago and still had no chance to take some good pictures, but nevertheless i would like to show you at least this first picture here:
I always liked the MILGAUSS, especially because of the THE BLITZ, numbered indexes and the colors used. And of course the ability to withstand a thousand gauss and the unique inner case design (two case back, the inner being in soft iron and another one u...
Great choice
I had the black dial one and I did not feel it was boring but then again I like very classic watches I am currently rolling with an Oyster 39 black, even more austere!
Thank your the comment, Doc.
Your second picture shows perfectly the great reflection of the green glass!
Agree!
Owned one and love the design, but the weight proportions never worked for my wrist. Congrats though!!!
Thank you so much. Let's see how it's going to be on my wrist :)
Wrist shots to follow!
My favorite is the same than yours. But there is no bad Milgauss, my friend. What I like with the 116400 GV is the extra touch of madness of its green glass, with some depth thanks to the black dial.
But how hard it is to take a decent picture of it, between its green glass and the polished bezel which catches all the reflections! Enjoy yours, Alberti, it is a very funny one. Best, Nicolas
Thank you so much, dear Nico. Appreciate your comment.
It is true indeed that there are no "bad" Milgauss and was not my intention to place such a message. This iteration though is the one that has it for me For the obvious reasons. Merci
Thank you so much. Is the second picture some sort of Limtied Edition :) ?
By the way, since i did not have the time to try it yet. Do you feel its top heavy ? I once tried the deepsea deepblue, the first generation, the 116.... That was a top heave watch! ! ! ! ! I think this was more or less solved with the second generation, ...
That’s a special Milgauss “cocktail edition”😂😉
I think I never noticed any issues in terms of weight imbalance or discomfort on the wrist when it comes to the Milgauss...I’d be curious to hear if you feel otherwise after wearing it for a day or so (it’s obviously not the thinnest or lightest of Rolexe...
Cool cocktail for sore! :)
I will certainly do so! Could it maybe be because of the different case back layers and the layer below the dial? that could explain the top-heaviness (maybe). Cheers
I only have one and this is my favourite.
Wear it often and love the colour combination. Enjoy. M. ...
love it!
I bought them in this sequence -black GV, white, black, blue GV - and would do it exactly the same sequence if I would have to again. Meaning, if you have one MIillie, this is the one All the very best, Alex
I posted them on Friday night, yes :-)
I think you also commented! It must be the coup de foudre from the Millie ))
I understand you love for MG... don't like much the GV but love the black dial
Cheers A watch that is both fun and understated Best Ø ...
