Greetings from Chicago
I have been lurking this forum for a couple months. I have had always admired craftsmanship of Rolex watches and I am thinking that it may be time to get one. I tried on a Milgauss at Rolex Chicago about a year ago and completely fell in love with it. I have had Omega and Tag Heur watches before, and honestly they cannot be compared to a Rolex.
It looks like I will be getting a Milgauss by the end the year and many more throughout the years. |

Welcome and good choice, though Omega has their own fans too.. and maybe, you can consider Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra too! :)

Welcome to the obsession! Always good to greet a new member from my home town. Lotta love for Omega here, many members own both, myself included.
The Milgauss is a great watch. Which one are you considering?

Greetings from Chicago
Welcome from a little farther south in Illinois. Milgauss is a great watch and the GV is a looker. It was originally the one that I wanted as my first Rolex but I could not get over the lack of a date so I went DJ on an oyster with a smooth bezel.
If you are looking for the non GV Milgauss in black you better snag one. I believe they discontinued that one. I could be wrong but I believe that is what my AD contact told me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You are correct, the black dial comes only in the GV now.
