If you like it go ahead and get it , is not the most popular of the Milgauss models but you have to wear what you like.

If you're set on the white Milgauss good , if not you can get a black or blue one for a couple of hundreds more or the AK which is basically the same watch with a different dial and brushed links.

Congrats, that's a beautiful watch... and I think you made the right call. I would give the millie the nod over an OP...both great watches but you get the easy link clasp with the millie.

Congrats on your first Rolex and kudos for going off the beaten path and choosing the Milgauss, in white no less!

Everytime I see someone wearing a Milgauss, I think "that's a real Rolex lover".

Congrats OP.

BTW the stock bracelet is great, yet you could also get an orange, black, etc rubber strap to add fun and versatility. Great watch, enjoy your time!
