Rolex Milgauss Steel Mens Watch 116400GV

The reliability and precision of an ordinary mechanical watch can be affected by a magnetic field of 50 to 100 gauss. But many scientists are exposed to much higher magnetic fields during the course of their work. Rolex’s solution was the Milgauss, created in 1956, the first watch of its kind. Hence the name of the watch, mille being French for thousand.

Created in 1956, the Milgauss was developed with the unique needs of scientists in mind – accommodating their exposure to higher than average magnetic fields.

With its distinctly masculine features and handsome personality, this high performance timepiece boasts everything you would expect to find from a watch that brings together impeccable function, form, and beauty.

Set in 904L stainless steel and featuring a sophisticated black dial with luminescent orange hour markers at 3, 6 and 9 o’ clock, an oyster bracelet, 3131 movement, and an efficient shielding system that surrounds and protects the movement, this timepiece is robust, innovative and exciting.
