My absolute favorite modern Rolex just arrived!!
Thank you to everyone that helped out on my last thread about the Milgauss GV


Without question this is my favorite modern Rolex. I love how it's kinda under the radar and sort of rare compared to most other models, I personally have only seen one in the wild. I like that lol!

I love the feel on my wrist... Love the heft and weight but it still manages to be very comfortable in my opinion. This might sound funny but I love the applied crown on the dial and the massive size of it lol. Especially compared to my sport models that have painted dials.

Here's two shots thanks again guys for the input!

Not to stoke the error dial conspiracy theorists...but another version of the same dial has the phrase "Oyster Perpetual" much more elongated.

Great watch tho!!!
