Rolex

Yes, we could play at the " Un Rolex Rolex " Vintage list as well, and I agree that the 1655 is very good at that game.

Three fresh pictures of the Rolex Milgauss 116400GV.

It is super hard to take some good pictures of it, but it is worth some efforts. For the last 15 years, this is one of my favorite Rolex Release, along with the Air King and the GMT Master Meteorite. I may have something for Un-Rolex Rolex... Young, crazy...  

Superbly portrayed Nico, one of my favorite (and most used) Rolexes as well....indeed one of the most "un-Rolex" but interesting recent models! ;-) Enjoy.

Funny, this is one of the two Rolex I bought from an AD. All the others came from the secondary market.

What makes it “un-Rolex?”

 
 By: Watch_This : April 11th, 2021-10:49
I’ve heard this before. 2 of my favorite watches are the milgauss z blue and yacht master, both of which I’ve seen described on this site as being “un Rolex.” I’ve got no issue with that description, but curious as to what makes that so. Thanks Drew ... 

They don't look like any other Rolex. Which is a compliment, for me.

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-10:59

Yep, I'm pretty sure I first heard the term on our site too, but I agree with the idea, in the (positive) sense that Nico described ;-) Cheers.

 
 By: FabR : April 11th, 2021-11:32

Indeed :-)

Wow, you have a bit of everything! Cool.

Superb

Beautiful shots! That Milgauss is my favorite Rolex. I guess we are both unorthodox

Totally! ;)

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-11:03

I am in total agreement with your assessment my dear friend. I’m glad they didn’t do anything to screw it up this year

The Eiffel Tower never looked better — with that watch in the foreground!

Merci, Orahu.

Is that a lighter? Beautiful design...

 
 By: mdg : April 11th, 2021-11:59

Yes, Dupond.

The last pic is wonderful! I know how much you like this Milgauss...

Grazie, Massi.

You had to do this just as I was thinking of selling mine!

 
 By: Sportster : April 11th, 2021-13:38
Beauty photos - especially the last. And this is a difficult watch to shoot.....👌🏻👌🏻

Keep it or you will regret it.

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-13:44

I had a feeling you might say that ✌️😎✌️

 
 By: Sportster : April 11th, 2021-13:54
It stays with me....with a photo to follow 🚀

Great! I made the mistake with the Yacht Master once, I will not repeat that.

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-14:05

I dont need to say how much I like it I guess ☺️

You are the King of Milgauss! Well, you just have to find a good old 1019. ;)

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-14:33

Lets see if a new 1019 falls from the sky ☺️

 
 By: agyzace : April 11th, 2021-22:19

Don't wait too long or instead of falling it may reach the sky. ;)

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-22:27

hahahaha!!!!!

 
 By: agyzace : April 12th, 2021-04:19

But you know I am right. ;)

 
 By: amanico : April 12th, 2021-04:31

I would venture to say you have this reference covered pretty well my friend

 
 By: aperna : April 11th, 2021-17:39

Here you can safely venture. ;)

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-21:56

 By: agyzace : April 11th, 2021-22:19
Thank you my friend!

Warning: modem burner! Back when that phrase was a thing. What a great series of wristshots. Haven’t closed the door on that one. Who knows :-)

 
 By: Echi : April 11th, 2021-20:25

I will have to educate myself on this expression 😊

 
 By: agyzace : April 11th, 2021-22:21
As you can imagine I highly recommend you to consider!

Very nice pics! The case fit and weight on the wrist are perfect with the Milgaus and new Air King.

 
 By: vallura : April 11th, 2021-16:44

Yes, I agree with that. Thanks, Vallura.

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-22:01

Looks great!!

 
 By: K-Lo : April 11th, 2021-18:57

Thanks, Ted.

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-22:02

I love that one together with the white. An electrifying line for sure :-)

 
 By: Echi : April 11th, 2021-20:27

Yes! The white is the one I liked the less when released, but now, I find it cool.

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-22:02

Cheers...

The two terrible child of Rolex, here is Bonnie ...  

The pair to own! Great idea, this side by side picture.

 
 By: amanico : April 11th, 2021-22:04

I am with you with.

 
 By: Miles_151 : April 12th, 2021-01:22
It is a tricky one to capture at its best for sure. A very un Rolex looking Rolex as you say probably why you and I like the 1655 so much. I just find the green glass so cool. Size and weight makes for a great daily wearer. Enjoy my friend. M. ...  

Yes, we could play at the " Un Rolex Rolex " Vintage list as well, and I agree that the 1655 is very good at that game.
