I know, I was surprised they didn't mention the 6543, unless they consider it as a prototype... [nt]

Rolex Millgauss Honoring science since 1956 & a Roll call
Dear friends The Rolex Milgauss was designed to meet the demands of the scientific community and is capable of withstanding magnetic fields of up to 1,000 gauss. The reliability and precision of an ordinary mechanical watch can be affected by a magnetic f...
Well, the first Milgauss probably was the 6543, issued in 1954.
The difference? The straight second hand, while the 6541 had a lightning second hand. Here is a 6543. Credit picture: Squarespace. A superb 6541 I saw in Paris: Patrice's 1019 in Italy: A black 1019 seen in Paris: 1019 Black Swan. Credit picture: Phillips...
awesomeness...
the vintage milgauss are incredible...looks like Rolex maybe updating this collection..we will know in a few weeks!
Well I was going with official Rolex info but even Rolex can make mistake
and wanna Milgauss to be 2 years younger than it us Wild spectrum of MillG you showed. Cheers D
Superb Milgauss parade my dear Nicolas!! I´m specially fond of the 6541 sans bezel and I would be touching the sky if I owned one 1019 like Patrice´s!!
Let´s see if Rolex surprises us with something around this model next Basel!! Cheers! Abel
I have a feeling we will be seeing a new Milgauss this year at Basel
Rolex is running Milgauss content almost exclusively on their social media which is what they do when they plan to introduce a new model.
What I would really love to see is a NON-Daytona chronograph, along the lines of a modern version of the 6238
That is, a chronograph in a case like the Air King (ie not a Cellini), with a smooth bezel and tachymeter scale on the dial (no bezel). Make it water proof and anti-magnetic. I’d prefer steel but they could also do such a watch in precious metal. Now THAT...
Not anymore
Swapped the silver one for a 5711 and auctioned off the black one. I love the design, but didn’t want to wear them with the very real scarcity of spare parts.
Thanks for posting. A cousin of mine has a millgaus.
After your post, I think I'll buy one too in the near future. Geross 😉
I really need to get a new photo of my white dial Milgauss :-)
I hope the new model Milgauss looks like the 6541 and by looks like I mean identical ...
Mine seems to be getting more wrist time these days.
For me I loved the green hue with the crystal when it was first introduced. M. ...
Yes not easy so thank you.
A compliment on my photography skills from you my friend is a compliment indeed. You take great shots. 🙏🏼. M.
May I join my dear D?? I´m specially fond of the vintage Milgauss. Early models like those shown by you and Nicolas are regrettably out of reach nowadays...
... as prices of vintage Rolex tool models have escalated to the sky in the last years. The ref 1019 is one of my grails which have been eluding me for years. Soon its prices will be in the sky as well. A great option is the modern interpretation of this ...
Great photos of Rasta...that last strap combo is very nice
Thanks for joining dear Abel Cheers D
