Did they just leak a new video by accident?

Hey guys,

Haven't been able to follow the latest news, but is this already a known release?

This is under the Milgauss watch page on the official Rolex website.

EDIT: Seems I cried wolf, thanks for pointing out it's a vintage piece! (Milgauss 6541 - Sweet piece though!)

If that is true, it will be hotter than a daytona.

Yeah, I see it too. One of the videos further down. Is that maybe a previous/vintage version?

That looks to be a 6541 Milgauss from the ~1950s

That's what I'm thinking.. Maybe I'm just not knowledgeable in the old models..

This is the original Milgauss 6541 - if I am not wrong with the reference. Produced around the mid 50s.

It was on the Milgauss page for quite some time now, just to show where it started.

September fever kicking in :-))

If anyone in the knowledgeable vintage circle can chime in on the watch dial, that would be great.

This has capped bracelet links, and what appears to be hollow end links? I don't think Rolex would go there, but who knows.

They have a similar video/images on the Explorer page as well. A vintage piece. Seems to be a consistent theme.

There is a vintage piece at the bottom of every models page.

There more I google the more I come to the same conclusion!

It would be too close of a refresh for it to be real.

Should I delete the post? (not sure if I can)

If there are vintage pieces for every series, then Rolex will probably revive one of these watches with modern technology (movement) upgrade and heritage look.

This rendering is old but the Z-Blue milgauss is getting discontinued.

It’s the original 1956 Milgauss. If you look in more detail in the section above the video on the website you’ll find more details on the history of the Milgauss
