Quote to above excrlerater............. It's there yet subtle. fully polished case, dial, crystal, PCLs, spring release on clasp end, raised logo on clasp. I have/had both, kept my Zblue but traded my AK for a Polar. It may not be worth it for everyone but the look of the total package is what got me more than anything.

Milgauss?
Quote:
Don’t forget the lightning bolt seconds hand Not to mention there is no other watch like it on the market Come on now, price justification? With that argument why do any of us bother buying any of these overpriced watches? There are Swatch mechanical chronographs with valjoux based movements that retail for $200... |

White
I usually have ND Ceramic Sub on my wrist 90% of the time. But there’s just something really special about putting on the white MG. I’m yet to see another one on my travels.

I know the feeling well. You don't get it from pictures, but there's something about it when it's in your hands.

New member here & first Rolex & first post, so be kind if I screw up until I learn better. I promise I will try.
Son got me into watches a few months ago at the age of 64 and knew I was looking at getting a steel Rolex a few weeks ago. He showed me a Milgauss z-blue picture, which I liked. He said let me see if I can find one for you, but warned me ahead of time that it could be a long road to find one. Any event, he called his saleswoman in NYC which didn't have any stock, tried a few more stores AD's in NYC without luck. On a lark he called a AD in NJ which neither of us have ever dealt with. He proceeds to somehow get the owner to say - tell your father to get here by noon the next day and he can see the one I have in the vault. Well you know I got the wife up early and was there before noon. We go inside and we tell the first saleswoman we see that we are there to look at the Milgauss in the vault. She says - I'm sorry but we don't have the watch. We explained to her that we were told there was one in the vault by the owner after talking to my son and to be there before noon. She goes back to see the owner and out it comes. The owner tells us - my son just sounded so sincere that she had to say yes. I fell in love with the watch, bought it and now they have a customer for life that will return for other items - Christmas is coming! Steve |

My z-blue puts a smile on my face, whenever I wear it. It is a beautiful watch and that blue dial green GV glass, is something you will not see in any other watch. It is not a watch for everyone.
Many get turned off by the yellow lightening hand, etc. I see that as what makes this watch so unique and it shows. |

You can’t really compare it to the Air King like that. There’s more than enough different to warrant the price difference if the whole package works for you. Not long ago people were paying a factor of two more for the BLNR over a black bezel GMT- that arguably makes less sense than 15% more for Z-blue over Air king.

I'm a fan for certain but something about the black dial just makes me want that one in particular. They're all nice however!!!

I have been wearing my white dial everyday since I got in late Oct, I really have no idea why there isn't more love for it.

The GV Milgauss is the single watch in my collection that’s received the most compliments.

Gave the Z Blue to my son who is a first year engineering student, and he's totally in love with it. Doesn't look twice at my other steel Rolex watches.

The Z Blue is stunning ! ive had mine for ages now and if your like me easily bored having had just about all the range including solid gold models and even a platinum Daytona at one point or another , I hand on heart highly recommend getting one , the dial and hands and green glass is another level , its slipped below most peoples radar and in a market of jacked up prices its a winner.
