I like the GV very much but cannot find a place for it in my collection.

I had a GV for several years and eventually sold it.

Pros:
- Unique
- Fit/finish was very high quality
- Very robust (took some abuse and never gave me any trouble)

Cons:
- Heavy
- Polished bits were scratch magnets
- After a while, came to feel that dial/seconds hand/GV crystal was a little too busy for my taste.

However, it's a very nice watch and I was surprised by the amount of compliments I received.

Love both GV variants. Part of the Milgauss charm is that you don't see many in the wild, so while it's no collectors item, it's not as ubiquitous as a Sub or Datejust

I'm going to get a Milgauss next, just can't decide between the GV Black dial or Z-blue.

I had a GV for a couple of years and I've recently just sold due to losing interest in its matte black dial. I believe I would have kept it if it had a gloss black dial.
