Milgauss GV

At first glace, I didn't like it at all. Once tried it on a few times visiting my AD, hearing the story about Milgauss which actually had been discont once for many years and reborn again. kinda like it more and more, Once staring into the black dial, the contrast of the orange and light green lume, as well as the thundering shape seconds hand in orange, you would definitely fall in love with Milgauss GV like me, and so I shot it down.

My thoughts exactly. Otoh, I spent the funds I'd set back for the GV I wanted on Rolex's for my s/o and son. DavidSW or Oscar are just gonna have to eat tuna fish sandwich's for a while longer.

I agree Poom... I have on my GV. This is a stunner watch! I'm so glad I finally got it.

This is definitely not an "only Rolex" kind of watch, it's great as a 2nd or 3rd (or in your case 12th) Rolex.
