Among Rolex watches, the Milgauss has generally been overlooked and, as a result, quite underrated. However, those who do know the Rolex Milgauss well understand that it\u2019s a watch with not only plenty of character but also one with historical importance. Similar to many other Rolex watches, the Milgauss was developed to serve a specific audience. The audience was the scientific community and the Milgauss\u2019 superpower was that it was antimagnetic, which was handy for engineers, scientists, and medical professionals that often worked in high magnetic fields. Magnetism can wreck a watch\u2019s movement, so Rolex designed the Milgauss to withstand up to 1,000 Gauss.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re into Rolex watches that aren\u2019t as commonly seen out in the wild as let\u2019s say the Datejust, Oyster Perpetual, and Explorer and are looking for an everyday Rolex timepiece that\u2019s different from the others, then join us as we outline several reasons to choose a Milgauss.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Rolex Milgauss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400GV_5D3_5253-2-Edit-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400GV Z-Blue Dial\" class=\"wp-image-54082\" title=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400GV Z-Blue Dial\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400GV_5D3_5253-2-Edit-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400GV_5D3_5253-2-Edit-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400GV_5D3_5253-2-Edit-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400GV_5D3_5253-2-Edit-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400GV_5D3_5253-2-Edit-2.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Milgauss ref. 116400 Quick Specs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Introduction Year:<\/strong>&nbsp;2007<\/li><li><strong>Case Size:<\/strong>&nbsp;40mm<\/li><li><strong>Case Materials:<\/strong>&nbsp;Stainless steel<\/li><li><strong>Bezel:&nbsp;<\/strong>Domed Stainless Steel<\/li><li><strong>Dial:<\/strong>&nbsp;White (discontinued), Black, or Z-Blue<\/li><li><strong>Crystal:<\/strong>&nbsp;Clear Sapphire (discontinued) or Green-Tinted Sapphire (GV References)<\/li><li><strong>Bracelet:<\/strong>&nbsp;Oyster<\/li><li><strong>Functions:<\/strong>&nbsp;Hour, Minute, Second hands; Antimagnetic 1,000 Gauss&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Water Resistance:<\/strong>&nbsp;100 meters (330 feet)<\/li><li><strong>Caliber:<\/strong>&nbsp;3131 Automatic Movement&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Retail Price<\/strong>: $9,150<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><a title=\"Ultimate Buying Guide on the Rolex Milgauss\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/buying-guides\/rolex-milgauss-ultimate-buying-guide.html\"><strong>Click here for our Ultimate Buying Guide on the Rolex Milgauss.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t<style>\n\t\t.bw-btn-container .bw-custom-button.color-dark{\n\t\t\tbackground-color: #000;\n\t\t\tpadding: 14px 100px;\n\t\t\tfont-size: 16px;\n\t\t\tcolor: #fff;\n\t\t\tfont-weight: 600;\n\t\t\tletter-spacing: 1px;\n\t\t\tmargin: 20px auto;\n\t}\n\t.bw-btn-container .bw-custom-button.color-dark:hover,\n\t.bw-btn-container .bw-custom-button.color-dark:focus,\n\t.bw-btn-container .bw-custom-button.color-dark:active{\n\t\ttext-decoration:none!important;\n\t\toutline:none!important;\n\t}\n\t.bw-btn-container{\n\t\t\tdisplay: flex;\n\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\talign-items: center;\n\t\t\tjustify-content: center;\n\t}<\/style><div class=\"bw-btn-container\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-milgauss-1.html\/\" title=\"Shop Rolex Milgauss Watches\" class=\"bw-custom-button color-dark\"><span>Shop Rolex Milgauss Watches<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_5D3_1535-Edit-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400 White Dial\" class=\"wp-image-54083\" title=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400 White Dial\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_5D3_1535-Edit-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_5D3_1535-Edit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_5D3_1535-Edit-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_5D3_1535-Edit-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_5D3_1535-Edit.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brief History of the Rolex Milgauss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rolex invented the Milgauss scientific watch in the mid-20th Century to withstand an electromagnetic work environment. Scientists and technicians would often discover that their watches didn\u2019t work efficiently when exposed to magnetism. What\u2019s more, in the presence of electromagnetic intensity greater than 1,000 Gauss, their watches would completely stop operating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rolex then sought to remedy the problem with the invention of the Milgauss watch, which officially debuted in 1956. The groundbreaking watch could withstand up to 1,000 Gauss of electromagnetic rays thanks to the use of an inner soft iron shield protecting the movement within the case. The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) rigorously tested the Milgauss, and the organization confirmed that the watch could indeed resist magnetic fields of up to 1,000 Gauss. The name Milgauss is a combination of the words \u201cMille\u201d (one thousand) and Gauss.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first Milgauss watch was the reference 6543, which featured a large-for-the-era 38mm steel case, a black rotating timing bezel, and a black honeycomb dial fitted with aluminum sheets to furthermore protect the movement. This particular reference is often regarded as a prototype or test model.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second Milgauss model that followed was reference 6541. The Milgauss 6541 retained many of the design cues of its predecessor but now included a lightning bolt seconds as a nod to the scientific community the watch was made for. Along with rotating bezel versions, Rolex also made a Milgauss 6541 with a flat steel bezel specifically for the American market.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third Milgauss model was the reference 1019, which arrived in 1960 and did away with both the rotating bezel and lightning bolt seconds hand. It wasn\u2019t a particularly successful Rolex model, which explains why the company quietly shelved the entire Milgauss collection in 1988. Despite the 1019\u2019s poor performance during its era, vintage Rolex Milgauss 1019 watches are now highly collectible pieces.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM7437-Edit-2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Milgauss Movement Antimagnetic Shield\" class=\"wp-image-54084\" title=\"Rolex Milgauss Movement Antimagnetic Shield\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM7437-Edit-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM7437-Edit-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM7437-Edit-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM7437-Edit-2-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM7437-Edit-2.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Modern Day Milgauss References<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2007, Rolex revived the Milgauss as an entirely redesigned antimagnetic watch. The modern Milgauss featured a 40mm steel case, an orange lightning bolt seconds hand on the dial, and a new Caliber 3131. Three models were part of the 2007 launch collection: a black dial version, a white dial version, and a special black dial version topped with a green-tinted sapphire crystal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The green-colored sapphire of the Milgauss, denoted as GV in the reference number, is something truly special and had never been done before. In fact, Rolex claims that the company didn\u2019t even apply for a patent for the green crystal as it is simply too difficult to make.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Milgauss 116400 with a white dial and uncolored sapphire crystal (discontinued)<\/li><li>Milgauss 116400 with a black dial and uncolored sapphire crystal (discontinued)<\/li><li>Milgauss 116400GV-0001 with a black dial and green sapphire crystal&nbsp;<\/li><li>Milgauss 116400GV-0002 with a Z-Blue dial and green sapphire crystal&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2014, Rolex released yet another Milgauss model, this time with an electric blue dial called Z-Blue. The bright dial color paired with the orange details and the green crystal makes the Milgauss Z-Blue of the most vibrant modern Rolex watches in the current catalog.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM6400-Edit-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400GV Green Sapphire Crystal\" class=\"wp-image-54086\" title=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400GV Green Sapphire Crystal\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM6400-Edit-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM6400-Edit-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM6400-Edit-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM6400-Edit-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rolex_Milgauss_116400_20JM6400-Edit-1.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Three Reasons to Choose the Rolex Milgauss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is safe to say that there are numerous reasons as to why the Rolex Milgauss is a brilliant choice. Here are a few reasons:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Revolutionary Technology&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When a watch wearer places a Milgauss on the wrist, they can be inspired by the fact that they are wearing one of the most revolutionary watches ever developed. One of Rolex\u2019s selling points is that they develop watches to meet a specific set of issues. While you may not be working in an electromagnetic environment, you can be sure that it is one of the most durable watches ever developed. Plus, if you opt for the cutting-edge green-tinted sapphire (GV) version, there are no other watches that have that same look.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Versatile Design&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Rolex Milgauss has been designed for wear in business environments, in the great outdoors, and everywhere in between. It\u2019s made of tough steel, it sports a perfectly sized 40mm case, it&#8217;s water-resistant to 100 meters (330 feet) and, of course, it\u2019s anti-magnetic. Its versatile nature makes it a top choice as a go-anywhere-do-anything (GADA) watch. Some celebrities that wear the Milgauss include Tom Hanks, Conan O&#8217;Brien, Will Ferrell, Usher, Jennifer Anniston, Katie Cassidy, and Tom Brady.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Good Value&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Prices start at less than $10,000 for a pre-owned Rolex Milgauss ref.<em>&nbsp;<\/em>116400, which is a good value in today\u2019s heated Rolex market. This is an especially attractive price if you consider that we\u2019re talking about a 40mm stainless steel Rolex watch \u2014 arguably the most popular size and metal in the pre-owned Rolex market right now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Milgauss is perhaps not Rolex\u2019s most popular watch model but it certainly has a cult following. Whether with a white, black, or Z-Blue dial and with or without the green crystal, Rolex\u2019s scientist watch with an orange lighting hand is a unique model in the Crown\u2019s current lineup and well worth adding to your watch collection.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20JM5463-Edit-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400 Black Dial\" class=\"wp-image-54085\" title=\"Rolex Milgauss 116400 Black Dial\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20JM5463-Edit-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20JM5463-Edit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20JM5463-Edit-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20JM5463-Edit-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/20JM5463-Edit.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you heard of the Rolex Milgauss wristwatch but aren\u2019t sure of its significance in the Rolex collection?
