Rolex 116400GV Milgauss Green Crystal SS Black Dial

The Rolex 116400GV Milgauss introduced in 2007 marks the celebrated return of the iconic antimagnetic scientist’s watch, engineered specifically for those working in environments with high electromagnetic interference. This model distinguishes itself with a unique green-tinted sapphire crystal—a first for Rolex—hovering above a matte black dial, giving the watch its recognizable “GV” (Glace Verte) designation. Within its 40mm Oystersteel case beats the robust in-house 3131 calibre, engineered for maximum magnetic resistance, a hallmark of the Milgauss since its origins in the 1950s. The screw-down crown and caseback, combined with an internal Faraday cage, ensure resistance to magnetic fields up to 1,000 gauss. Paired with a classic Oyster bracelet in stainless steel, the 116400GV blends professional utility with unmistakable Rolex style. Collectors appreciate its understated yet technical aesthetic, the distinctive orange lightning bolt second hand, and its brief period of production prior to discontinuation, enhancing its long-term desirability. The Milgauss’s historic association with CERN scientists further underlines its tool-watch pedigree and enduring relevance among Rolex connoisseurs. This reference stands out not just for its antimagnetic cosc precision, but also for its celebrated green crystal, exclusive to the Milgauss line. Like New with Rolex box and papers dated 2019.
