Too funny! Maybe you should and if she likes it that could be your way to get another timepiece!

I dont have one yet but I have promised my self that I will have one by the end of september or a black sub ceramic with a date. My A D keeps telling me to get the sub because in the future if I decide to sell one of my Rolex's the sub will sell better. If I do get a Milgauss it will be definitely be the black one with green sapphire. Not a big fan of white face watches. So what do you think about what my A D said?

You really shouldn't judge a purchase off of resale value. I would say get the one you like better.

I have had a sub in the past and although I do miss it the Milgauss GV is so unique. Not having the cyclops really gives the watch a clean look.

IMO GV > Ceramic Sub.

I would not worry about potential resale values unless you are certain to sell/trade the watch in the future (imho this would make me question the purchase in the first place) - better to get the watch you really like, then you are less likely to want to flip it. Have you also considered the black dial Milgauss (non-GV)? I love the black & orange of this model

Have seen vintage Milgauss price goes?
I bet on one day Rolex will stop Milguass production again for unknown reason. I'll sit couple years and it might sky rocking
