Maybe the lightning bolt struck you and you realised that the Milgauss is an over-rated model??

Just because you like the brand you don't have to like every model they make. Milgauss isn't for me and maybe not for you either.

I pass my AD every day on my drive to work. I've been wanting to go in to look, even set out on a mission to go in, but didn't.
I think it's because I know I'm weak and won't come out empty handed, but with a empty wallet.

If I'm in an AD I'd look at a new Milly but I'd never make a special trip to see one.

My interest in Rolex comes and goes. I used to love going in AD's. Fact is, their watches haven't changed for a while, neither has what I can afford. Quite frankly, it gets boring looking at the same watches over and over.

My local AD is one that never gets anything new. It took them over a year to get the new ceramic GMT II all gold.. I knew it came out way before them, and they didn't believe me when I told them it was out. My point is, they are not current with their stock.

I am reserving final judgement on the Milgauss until I see one in the flesh. My first impressions, are thats is a neat and unique watch. I certainly don't think its ugly or anything. :) But I am DIEING to see one in person!

Overrated? Probably. In very high demand? Definitely!!!
