I was attracted to the Milgauss because of the uniqueness of the watch. Both white and GV are beauties but, IMO, the GV is the most unique of the Milgauss selection and that is why I spent the extra $'s. But, that being said, the cool orange lightning bolt second hand is on all of them and that's just great!

I love my white. I saw 3 or 4 of GV's at the US open this weekend....aside from the white being less common, I think it just looks cleaner. The GV, while pretty cool with the green crystal, will probably grow old quick, and the green seems to cloud up the dial.

Personally I feel that if I were to get one of the two, I'd get the white.
I think other than the Exp I and AK that these sell less often than Subs and everything else. That being said, if Rolex manages to keep it's position as the "top" brand (To the average Joe, non-WIS, obviously) I think in decades to come, the white dial will be worth more as the GV is the more popular variant. All speculative, though. White dials being my favorite, and orange being one of my favorite colors... Maybe I'm just trying to sell it to myself right now. |

I've always loved the white one. The white and orange together seem so classy to me.

Definately the GV. I think the green is an eye catcher.

Had both the white and GV before. Sold them both. Now I'm trying to purchase the GV back. Weird.

I know you didn't ask about it, but the black non-GV is my favorite of the three. I prefer the cleaner dial.....after that, GV. The white is just a little too creamsicle for me.
Good luck with the choice! |

Both are cool, but if I could only have one (I don't have either, by the way), I would buy the GV!

I was about to buy a GV until I tried it on and find it too bulky. If you do not think the Milgauss is too bulky, do not hesitate a second and buy the GV. It is an awesome watch and totally different and a bit crazy. Absolutely brilliant!!!

I love my GV. The green is quite unique. And the green crystal reflects in so many different ways and shades under different lighting. Sometimes it is really subtle and other times it really stands out. It is indeed unique and it never gets old.
Having said that, it never gets hold owning a Rolex :) What a blessing! Good luck with your purchase! |
