Rolex Milgauss 1019 from 1967.
Patrice was in Paris, yesterday, for a quick GTG. And with him, on his wrist, this charming Milgauss 1019.
Look at this dial, vertically brushed, this applied markers and these superbly patinated luminous dots, matching with the original hands.
This is why I have a preference for this dial, rather than for the black one.
The 38 mm case is just pleasure, when on the wrist.
Totally understated compared to a Daytona, Submariner or even GMT.
But not less charming!
Enjoy.

Hmmmh.. Superb piece on a splendid pic !.. In fact, such one has been increasingly enter my visor.. Will see, what 2016 will bring :))

Well, as you 're mentioning it.. There is this one in focus.. Very tempting, I agree ! ;))
Hmmmh.. guess I have to think.. We\'ll see.. Maybe.. Best, hs ...
Personally, I have a big hole in my collection, which misses this Milgauss.
Ok, ok, I have the green one, but the vintage 1019 ( sorry for the redundance ) is something to grab. In the list, quite high. But finding the one which pleases you is another story. Best, Nicolas
Also have the green one, as you know.. And of course, the True Beat already.. So the 1019 is sort of - well, natural.. As I said.. Maybe.. ;))
I\'ll know pretty soon, by end of January.. Best, hs
Yep, sort of.. In fact, it's still with a collector, who will probably let it go.. ;))
Also the intitially assumed prize is still a bit over, IMO; so my dealer will have to so some arm-twisting, I guess. But yes, I am considering it, if the price is ok. Maybe I can quickly ask you via PM, if allowed.. The condition of it, is really very goo...
That's a watch i could really live with
-----simply stunning! do you know how long it was in production? another very tempting grail to chase thanks for showing it
Perfect and stunning example of this classic reference...
... Exactly what I would love to have in my collection! Lol! May be 2016 will be the year I can fill this gap in my Rolex stable! Hope so! Congrats Patrice, and thank you Nicolas for these beautiful pictures showing the beauty of the silver dial 1019! Che...
Feeling the gap... Yes, my friend. A 1019 is a great addition in any vintage Rolex collection.
Not the one you are immediately thinking about, but certainly an unavoidable one. Un abrazo. Nicolas
What a perfect specimen
The patina is fantastic, the Lume dots look good enough to eat. This thread has officially inspired me to hunt for one for 2016!
