Blue Rolex Milgauss Specifications

Understanding the technical specifications of blue dial Milgauss watches reveals the sophisticated engineering behind these antimagnetic timepieces. Each component contributes to both the watch's scientific functionality and its distinctive visual character.

Materials

Blue dial Milgauss watches feature robust Oystersteel construction that provides durability while maintaining the sleek profile collectors appreciate. The case construction incorporates Rolex's proprietary steel alloy, ensuring resistance to corrosion and maintaining its polished finish over decades of wear. The signature antimagnetic properties stem from the soft iron inner case that shields the movement from magnetic interference up to 1,000 gauss.

• Oystersteel case and bracelet construction
• Soft iron inner case for magnetic protection
• Scratch resistant sapphire crystal options
• Antimagnetic shielding up to 1,000 gauss

Movement

The heart of every blue Milgauss houses the Caliber 3131, a self-winding mechanical movement engineered specifically for antimagnetic performance. This movement represents decades of Rolex innovation in creating timepieces that maintain accuracy in challenging electromagnetic environments. The paramagnetic components ensure consistent performance regardless of magnetic exposure.

• Caliber 3131 self-winding movement
• Paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring
• 48-hour power reserve capacity
• COSC certified chronometer accuracy

Bezel

The smooth, polished bezel of the blue Milgauss creates a clean aesthetic that emphasizes the dial's striking appearance. Unlike rotating bezels found on other Rolex models, the Milgauss features a fixed bezel that contributes to the watch's streamlined profile. This design choice reflects the model's scientific heritage while providing timeless visual appeal.

• Fixed, polished Oystersteel bezel
• Seamless integration with case design
• Emphasis on dial visibility and legibility

Watch Bands

Blue Milgauss models exclusively feature the three-link Oyster bracelet, engineered for comfort and security during extended wear. The bracelet's robust construction complements the watch's technical character while providing the flexibility needed for professional use. Each link undergoes precise finishing to ensure smooth operation and long-term durability.

• Three-link Oyster bracelet construction
• Oysterclasp with Easylink extension
• Solid center links for enhanced durability
• Polished outer links with brushed center sections

Sizes

The Milgauss maintains consistent 40mm proportions across all blue dial variants, creating a balanced presence on various wrist sizes. This diameter represents optimal sizing for both professional environments and casual wear. The case thickness accommodates the antimagnetic shielding while preserving wearability.

• 40mm case diameter
• 13mm case thickness including crystal
• 20mm lug width for bracelet attachment

Water Resistance

Blue Milgauss watches provide 100 meters of water resistance, suitable for swimming and everyday exposure to moisture. While not designed primarily for diving, this level of protection ensures reliability in various environments where scientists and professionals might encounter water exposure.

• 100 meters (330 feet) water resistance
• Screw-down Twinlock crown system
• Suitable for swimming and water sports

Blue Rolex Milgauss Price

The pricing landscape for blue dial Milgauss watches reflects their unique position as both technical achievements and distinctive collector pieces. These models command attention in the pre-owned market due to their limited production runs and the growing appreciation for antimagnetic complications in luxury timepieces.

Market values for the blue Milgauss Reference 116400GV reflect its unique position as the only blue dial variant ever produced in the Milgauss collection. This exclusivity, combined with the model's distinctive Z-dial pattern and limited production period, creates strong collector demand that influences pricing in the pre-owned market.
