I nearly did the opposite 2 weeks ago and trade my Z-Blue for the new Sub date from an AD. Decided to keep both as the Milgauss is a beautiful watch albeit I don't wear it as often as it deserves....

I have both and also would not sell them. They are my ultimate 2 Rolex collection. Add instead of selling.

Both are great watches but the sequence you have is Submariner first and then the Milgauss. You got it right with the Submariner and it is a cornerstone of many Rolex collections. If you sell it at some point you will chase it back into the collection and so goes the hobby. As mentioned earlier why not try to figure it out so you can have both for a period of time and can see which is which or if both can stay. If you can not do that then keep the Submariner and save for the Milgauss. In the end, two great watches.

Submariner is a timeless classic which should be the foundation of any Rolex collection.

MattyL147 · 25 May 2021, 12:28 AM

I have 2 subs and would not move either for a MG. Keep in mind, I do like the MG, especially the z-blue, but I would not part with a sub for it.

jpwv · 25 May 2021, 12:29 AM

I would not trade my sub for a milgauss.

I have a Milgauss, would not trade for a Submariner.

JPBlackBay · 25 May 2021, 01:45 AM

I like the Milgauss and would consider owning one, but I've always seen it as a companion piece.

904VT · 25 May 2021, 02:03 AM

Both are really awesome watches. I wouldn't trade a watch you enjoy though, just add imo.

Seddyspaghetti · 25 May 2021, 04:52 AM

I wouldn’t but you should if you prefer the mg

Andrejb · 25 May 2021, 05:16 AM

I love the milgauss. Everyone has a sub, the milgauss is much different and way way more unique of a watch.

All that being said is still choose the sub if I were given the option

my preference is the milgauss (either one). That puts me in the distinct minority on TRF. Ultimately the best bang for your buck is what you like best

I would never trade a sub for a milgauss, it's like trading a lexus for a camry.

If you plan on having a large Rolex collection, go for the Milgauss. If you are a one watch guy, keep the Sub.

blue lion · 25 May 2021, 12:03 PM

Sub all day every day

rustyyas · 27 May 2021, 07:54 AM

Sub is the way to go

I like love the classic and understated design of the Sub for sure, but the MG seems arguably a bit more special and funkier (I personally love the design and lightning hand). To me it's just a choice between a timeless model and design and something a bit more unique from Rolex, I find them both equally attractive, albeit in different ways. However, if the MG gets discontinued soon, this could arguably make it significantly more expensive and difficult to get. I'm not really concerned with resale value, as they both retain it well enough and I'm not looking to flip. Just trade if/when necessary to continue developing the collection.

Absolutely not. I own an older sub and black dial GV. I like both but given the choice I'd choose the sub any day and if you have a new 41mm, there's no good reason to get rid of the Sub. Just MHO.

LonghornBBA16 · 27 May 2021, 08:22 AM

Get what you want, but this is a no brainer to me! Gotta be the Sub.

Nikrnic · 27 May 2021, 08:48 AM

Another personal preference question that l honestly can't answer what should be your choice.. I have both, actually a 5 and 6 digit Sub and a Zblue. I actually love the Milgauss enough to add a black gv as well. If I had to put them in a preferred order it would be like splitting hairs for me but I'll say, in order 14060M, Zblue, black gv (I'm thinking), 114060. Anyway, as said many times Buy what you Love and You can't go wrong.. Happy Choosing
