that actually looks good

JJ Irani · 29 January 2008, 04:18 PM

WOW!! If that's a photoshop, it looks terrific. In fact, that's how the new Milgauss should have been introduced in the very first place!!!

badsmac · 29 January 2008, 04:18 PM

I'm really digging that.

The Milgauss is a really nice watch!

dramsey · 29 January 2008, 04:31 PM

I think the reason the Milgauss doesn't have a date is that the face is part of the Faraday cage that prevents the formation of magnetic fields inside the watch. Having a hole in the face for a date display would compromise this.

Correctomondo!

My Milgauss GV is just perfect!

i'd like to see them add the date to the milgauss, it doesn't make sense why they left it out.

Date sans cylops would have been better IMHO.

SPACE-DWELLER · 29 January 2008, 05:43 PM

Sorry, but I would prefer the Milgauss as it is now. A date feature makes it look like just another DJ.

MAXI DIAL · 29 January 2008, 05:45 PM

Thanks Bo

Attila · 29 January 2008, 07:18 PM

I don't like it, looks like all the others really.

kilroy · 30 January 2008, 08:10 AM

I get the date when I pick up my paper from the driveway :)

Hey Kilroy that's a great photo, beautiful colours on the dial/crystal edges, congrats if that is yours

BuffaloRolex · 30 January 2008, 08:46 AM

Hmm. IWC SS Ingenieur has a date window and is equally antimagnetic. Must be another reason.

MasterChief · 30 January 2008, 10:07 AM

I'd love a Milgauss ither way......There beautiful

frostie · 30 January 2008, 10:08 AM

I 've got to agree that it looks nice with a date feature but still like Bo said it looks like a datejust so i guess that i would prefer the way that it is
