Dan,

It looks like there are only 11 MilGauss owners on all of TRF!!!

What an exclusive club!!

Or maybe only 11 Millie owners that could also afford cameras...

My AD has one too that has been on my wrist but I decided to exercise restraint. My white Millie will have to tide me over while I save for my "grail". Jocke's photos of the Glashutte's have got me hooked.

That lume shot looks awesome Peter. I wish it would shine like that for hours, but it does in my experience tend to be very limited.

I agree Steve. I only seem to get about ten minutes or so when I come from outside. At nighttime I can still see the markers when im in the dark so legibility in the dark is pretty good. Also love that minty green the markers glow when they got a little charge in them too.. makes the dial look so sweet

This will be my next watch -- might settle for the white dial millie if my AD still wouldn't budge on giving the same discount for the GV

A little more respect towards the boss might save you from me coming over there and trying to fly your toy jet.

Haha well that is a very tempting offer Eddie and it will take all my strength to resist pizza and a Coonawarra Cab Sav.

However, I'm trying to loose some weight. Got to watch my figure

Really it would be great but I'm sorry not this time.

I love that watch. I bought a used M series and wear it all the time. Very solid and substantial.

I have one also

Bought my white milgauss in Vegas last October, all three models were available to purchase (GV in the Belagio; white at Ceasars Palace ( two dealers) and a black at the Wynn; I chose the white, with it's clear easy to see dial!

One reason I chose to make the purchase, was that I became ever more tired of some sales chap offering to clean my Rolex (submariner date) free of charge as I wandered through a shopping mall! Now they just say "clean your watch for you", which is an improvement!

The submariner dial is cluttered in the extreme, the vast number of words plus the date window, and the black dial distract me from quickly discerning the time, so, in the main I enjoy wearing my milgauss in preference to the submariner.

Finally I do have camera, however adding an image would appear to be ' bit of black art'!
