Milguass only lasted a month...
After aquiring a Milguass black dial I was content with a dressier watch than most in my collection. But, after only a month the lightening bolt and orange writing didn't set it far enough apart from the likes of the LVC, Pepsi or Panerai's...so out with the Milgauss and in with DJII

Thx, although I still love the Milgauss, it wasn't the right fit for me at the moment. It is one I would consider re-aquiring in the future though. It has a great presence on the wrist

Yeah, you're not alone in the Milgauss reassessment ranks.
It is a good tool watch for those who work in EMI hostile environs. Otherwise, it is an acquired taste.

I didn't hang on to mine long either. My eyes always went to the second hand every time I looked at the time. That bothered me for some reason.

Thx Guys. I have to say FiguredMaple's post with both the croc strap and bracelet pictures were the catalyst in this decision. So thx!

I like the DJII better. The Milgauss is a nice looking watch but I just can't warm up to that lightning bolt second hand. I think it makes the watch look cheap.
