My first Rolex, success search

[medtner]

Have been looking for a Milgauss in blue, after getting no support from local dealers in Houston, started looking globally, 6 months of search in Berlin, Dublin, Glasgow and Oslo, finally bought in Zurich, 3 dealers in town, only 1 had it ready, price 7800 ch, 7250 no tax, form stamped at airport, $7460 plus $180 tax paid at ATL airport when declared. Thnx to everyone in this forum for good info provided.

Nuts..

[maxymax]

Congrats and wear it in good heath!

[medtner]

Was very hard to find
Either very unpopular or the opposite, AD always said it was popular

[vesnyder]

Let's see some pics! Or it didn't happen.

[ademarco]

Did you by chance see any SS sports models? Applaud the persistence.

Congratulations, Milgauss is an extraordinary piece. Photos are always welcome. Enjoy.

Crazy, a local AD had one in the case last month. Love that blue dial and orange seconds font.

Trying to size the photos

Persistence does pay off. Congratulations.

I've been low-key looking for one of these for a while - not at all aggressively - and yeah, I can testify that these are damn hard to come by.

Grats on the acquisition!

[medtner]

Dealer was Bucherer, no other SS but he mentioned that he gets weekly shipments.
It was a Rolex boutique, very busy customers traffic. Switzerland is not the best place to get a discount but I had the feelings that there were more watches available than other places I saw

[billfredericks]

Congratulations. It’s a wonderful watch.

[calh22a]

Congrats! Your persistence paid off

[travisb]

Nice! Feels great I'm sure.

[Nikrnic]

Great watch. And getting harder to just bump into. I think the Z-Blue will be a bit of a classic when it goes out of production, although judging from how relatively few are turning up compared to 1-2 years ago, it might as well not be in production!

[riad87]

Congrats and wear it in good health. Can we get some pics

[Acidstain]

I admire your dedication in searching for your grail. Congratulations now whereare the pictures?

[medtner]

Again, many thnx to everyone on this forum, was a great learning tool

[Muxi]

I am very happy for you. The chase only made the find more special.

[notchview]

No way. Milgauss z-blue under the glass at Lewis Jewelers in Houston last month.

[MY-WATCH]

Congrats

[omx5o]

Sounds like a good excuse to do some traveling. Enjoy the Milgauss. Great history, great watch.

[medtner]

Despite that Switzerland is an expensive place to buy a Rolex a I and declared it upon arrival at USA, my savings was around $+1200 compared to buying it locally w sale tax, I travel often anyway so this search added more fun.
I was really amazed how comfortable it is despite heavy weight, thinking about the next one which will be Air king

[sunnygps]

My AD told me that they have only received one z-blue this year. They aren’t that many being shipped to the ADs, however I have a feeling if the AD gets it, it may sit in the cases a lot longer than other SS models.

[DTap]

Nice

[VacherObsessive]

Would have just bought grey as the uplift isn’t that much, and had it instantly and basically new.

[Futuristic]

Congrats!
