Milgauss for Auto Enthusiasts?

Maybe it's been going on for a while, but I just noticed that Rolex USA is targeting the auto enthusiast segment with the Milgauss. Saw this on the back cover of the Feb 2012 issue of R&T.

Yeah, I know. It's been the Daytona for years IIRC.

Maybe they need to push them out the door to make some room for some of the better sellers.

I`d rather see the test of the 2013 911.

Thanks for the heads up! I got some great ads from National Geographic. This documentation fetish I have for cars, which just got extended to the Milgauss can get expensive! All scientists drive cars, I think it is a good place to advertise! I am a chemist, and the Milgauss GV is perfect. Maybe I wont magnetize this watch! Running +60 seconds a day isn't fun for a WIS.

Milgauss has been slumping in sales, particularly the whit and black dials! Rolex needs to promote this watch, that is why it is on the back cover of this mag! Thanks for the info!
