It's very nice as well. I already have a couple of black face watches, so I wanted something different. I find the white dial to be a refreshing change, when compared to the dark faces I am more accustomed to.

Amazing that all the comments regarding the uniquely functional watches are regarding aesthetic appeal. Not one comment has referred to the unique function.

Thanks Sharif, the lume does look awesome

Here's another photo of the lume on the white dial:

Unfortunately, once the initial burst of lume dies down, it looks basically green...like all other Rolex lumes. :) So we can only enjoy the pics! :)

It is the lightning bolt that strikes me! I wasn't too sure if I like the black dial over the white one, but WOW, your watch looks awesome. The white and orange combination is good.

Since I already have a conservative TT DJ, I could see myself wearing something like this.

Are all Milgauss hard to get right now, or it there a certain version that is rare?

Anyway, nice post.

Great shots. sharif. The watch really does look teriffic, but I have other Rolex watches on my radar right now. I'm glad you're happy with it though, because it's a very sharp looking piece.

The watch is also enormous, and really needs to be seen in person, before it can be appreciated.

Hopefully these new wrist shots will help others appreciate it's beauty. I am in love!



Outstanding pic's sharif! I can't wait to get mine. I have the black dial on the way so I'm wondering which one I'll like more?

Nice watch and Pictures, But just doesn't do anything for me I like a watch with a date feature. Also, the orange and white remind me of the old Orange cream ice cream bars we used to get as kids.

Great shots, sharif! One thing that did cross my mind when I saw your photos was, "Geez, that watch would be perfect for the new Speed Racer movie!".

Love the white dial, but dont like the second hand, a bit too "gimmicky" IMHO, beautiful photography.

Wear your watch in good health.
