Thank you for the review. I just joined the boards in my search for more info about the Milguass GV. I am going to buy my first Rolex tomorrow at an AD and have decided on the Milguass GV as my first watch :D

Great review from Bo and very practical rating system.
I love the Milgauss a lot and took me some time (20 years) to get over my divers and consider this line of pieces. I love them so much that I bought 2. These are my 2 babies. |

So as my first post on the forum i wanted to thank you for the review and flash from the past on the Milgauss, I bought the Milgauss GV a couple of weeks ago while on vacation in Hawaii. I am a welding inspector on pipelines and just about every joint of pipe i touch has some degree of magnetism so the watch has more then just great looks for me. I plan on getting the entire line of them from the 6541 & 6543 to the other two of the series i have now.

I vaguely recall seeing this review, but am surprised I hadn't commented on it until now. Very well done. I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice the brown undertones in the dark grey dial. I occasionally see it when the sun hits at the right angle, and I don't have the GV so it's not caused by the crystal. Love this watch. |

To add to my review, the writing on the Rolex Milgauss GV dial has changed a little since its inception...
Here's a picture of the V-series Milgauss GV reviewed here: Compare with this other more recent, random series Milgauss GV: As you can see, the "OYSTER PERPETUAL" has a larger spacing on your MG GV while the word "MILGAUSS" does not seem to have had its font / spacing changed...

Thanks Bo, I enjoyed reading this great review again. My fave Milgauss is the black dial (non-GV) model. Something about orange and black strongly appeals!

Great review, thanks much. It takes a special eye to see the beauty (and the flaws) in such a pricey investment!
It looks like the inner case back is threaded. I wonder why? |

I know this is an older thread but what an awesome review. Thanks for taking the time and energy to write this. You can tell you put your heart and soul in it and I appreciate it. This is a great watch and your review makes me want one more.
Thanks again
