Milgauss, you don't see them on the corner very often. Personally, I love the green-glass crystal with the black dial.

Go the Explorer 2, it's a classic. The Milgauss is an unusual looking watch to me

Milgauss all the way!

I vote for the Milgauss. I really like the simple clean dial on it. Also, the dial is a little bigger which is nice. It has a very nice bracelet with an upgraded clasp as well.

I am not a fan of the cyclops, so I prefer to have no date. If you really need a date the Exp II is a great choice!

something about the exp II just doesn't work for me in the aesthetics department. so i'd go for the milgauss.

The Black Dial MG is my first choice in the MG lineup, followed by the White Dial. The Green Crystal GV version does not do it for me, as do not like the orange hour markers at 3,6,9 only or the green crystal.
I'm with you. The Explorer doesn't do it for me.



If you're going to have that 4th hand, get one of these:



Have fun choosing!

Kind regards
