Milgauss GV - BLUE dial
Anybody seen one?? About to hit another goal and the two on my short list are a GV and a DJII.
The new blue dial will weigh heavily on which one I get first. |

It's a great goal, I'm dying to see one in the real.

I am also waiting to see it in person. I haven't been to my AD in a few months though - just trying to stay out of trouble :)

Saw the Platinum Daytona, 3 Sky-Dwellers, and my favorite DJII. Hate that I love these watches so much. |

^ lol
For me it's more about taking time to enjoy the watches that I do have, rather than perpetually (pun intended) thinking about the 'next' piece. |

will be cool to see, but, at this point, i am pretty sure the original GV is the one to have.

Rolex does blue dials so well that I want to see it despite it being possibly over-colourful.

Very much looking forward to seeing this in the flesh, I for one think it is going to be a huge hit for any Milgauss fans, love the blue and green

I've only seen a few live photos of it in really bright lighting conditions. Has anyone found a hands on video on the piece? Looking forward to seeing it in person before I buy either GV.

I think I prefers the original GV. This blue just looks too light to me. Will have to wait and see in person.

To be fair these are dummy ones... the pricetag says £0.01

Depending on which DJII, I say DJII. Love the original GV, but never bought one due to the lack of a date function. But I would still say the DJII over the blue GV. The blue and the green, to my eye, "blended" ok as to avoid the too many color problem. But again, no date.

Since you've seen it in person, is the dial as bright as it appears in pics? I'm hoping it will be darker in person, sunlight aside.

Can't wait to see it in person. I have a feeling it's going to be incredible live or a bit of a dud.

Didn't get chance to actually handle the watch but yes I think pics are pretty much true to the colour. I'm actually going to a Basel / sihh event tomorrow evening so hoping this will be one of the watches available on the night 👍 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Do you think the Blue on this dial is lighter than the Blue Roman dial on the DJ II?

Also looking forward to seeing the Blue GV in person. Really liking the colour combination from the photos, but definitely want to see how blue the dial is in person and in different lighting.
