MRI used 2-3 Teslas- ie 20000-30000 Gauss. Milgauss (1000 Gauss) would not have a chance of surviving it.

I saw that your bracelet has 4 links at 6 and 7 at 12.Isn'it out of balancement?

Had the white one for six months and not a hint of eye fatigue looking at it. In some ways, it is less idiosyncratic (although less characteristic) than other rolexes, so I would expect to be at least as timeless.

Thanks for the review. I'm thinking of buying the Milgauss but was not sure about the green glass edition. After seeing your pictures I decided to go for the non-green version. Beautiful watch.

the faraday cage adds all the weight i would imagine...
thinking of getting one now (was previously set on a gmt iic), only concern is the strap clasp that causes the noise many have reported...

just a quick footnote...my white dial milly is now 8 months old and has settled to a steady loss of 11 seconds A MONTH...yes, average of -0.3 secs a day...the accuracy of this thing just impresses me so much, by far the best high-end watch I own!......ps, great review and as I wear a magnetic bracelet on my other wrist, actually quite useful features!

I really like it, very solid/substantial feel, wish it had the date function.

I got my very first Rolex couple days ago! The Milgauss GV with the green crystal. No buyer remorse whatsoever. What a gorgeous piece of art. Loving it more by the day.

I'm so happy I own a Rolex and one of the classiest looking Rolex!
