RolexMilgauss

Traditionally a sober-looking watch built for scientists and technicians, the Milgauss reference 116400GV reimagines the model in a more colourful and attention-grabbing aesthetic. Looking at the dial, the bright orange lightning bolt second hand is instantly recognisable and is a nod to the original Milgauss from the 1950s. Orange hour markers at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock continue the colour theme, as do the numbers around the minute track and the name inscribed on the dial.

Perhaps the most eye-catching and distinctive design element is the green-tinted sapphire crystal. Unique to the Milgauss, it creates a halo effect around the edge of the glass. Sitting underneath the screw-down caseback and housed inside an anti-magnetic Faraday cage is the calibre 3131. The movement has a 48-hour power reserve and is Chronometer-certified.

This 2008 example is presented in new, unworn condition with factory protective stickers in place. Also included in the sale are the box, guarantee, booklet, and swing tags.
