The Skeie's Difference
The Rolex Milgauss 116400 represents the triumphant 2007 return of Rolex's legendary anti-magnetic watch, originally developed in 1956 for scientists and engineers working in electromagnetically challenging environments. The name itself, a combination of "mille" (French for thousand) and "gauss" (the unit of magnetic measurement), declares its purpose: resistance to magnetic fields up to 1,000 gauss.
The 40mm Oystersteel case houses the Caliber 3131 movement, featuring a soft-iron Faraday cage shield and Rolex's paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring for exceptional magnetic resistance. The iconic orange lightning bolt seconds hand, a nod to electricity and the scientific community, adds playful personality to an otherwise serious tool watch. The smooth polished bezel and Oyster bracelet with Easylink extension system deliver classic Rolex versatility, while 100-meter water resistance ensures everyday practicality.
