I think you're right; I'm not certain about the standard SD however? (I guess it does.)



Wearing mine today!!!

I've always enjoyed the proportions of the Milgauss. 40mm case, 20mm lugs, and a tapered oyster bracelet make it the perfect size for me. Also like the slightly beefier than typical twinlock crown and the bolder, larger, dial script. Just big enough, but not too big. The sweet spot, IMO.

It has been discontinued for a while now. You may find a NOS, but it is a recent enough model that you can pick up a used one in excellent condition.

Thanks!!! Mainly RubberB and Everest straps purchased just to go with the dial and glass!!!! The bottom one is a OysterFlex style one I was able to find on line which allows the use of End Links. It's my newest addition; I like the matching green line on the straps in particular!
