Ultimate Guide To The AAA Perfect Fake Rolex Milgauss Watches

The 1:1 US replica Rolex Milgauss is a pioneering anti-magnetic watches. Designed to meet the needs of the scientific community, it can withstand magnetic fields of up to 1,000 gauss.

Introduced in 1954, the Milgauss was created amidst the post-war boom in technological industries. Like many of the Rolex models designed during this period – such as the GMT Master, Submariner, and the Day-Date – the Milgauss was designed to overcome an emerging problem of the 20th century: to keep accurate time even in the presence of electromagnetic fields.

The current line of high quality Rolex Milgauss fake watches not only carry its anti-magnetic positioning – they are also some of the most vivid and playfully designed watches in the Rolex line-up. Today, the sporty-elegant luxury watch is a top choice not just for scientists or engineers, but also for fashion-forward watch enthusiasts.

About the Rolex Milgauss

The years after the Second World War (1939 – 1945) saw major advances made in the fields of science, medicine, and engineering. This period gave rise to the invention of high-tech electronic equipment and laborsaving devices that, while solving everyday problems, also brought with them a new kind of problem: electromagnetic fields.

The delicate mechanisms inside a watch can be damaged by forces as low as 50-100 gauss, meaning even household appliances could affect their timekeeping abilities. Best replica Rolex’s solution was watches that houses its movement inside a Faraday cage, which directs magnetism away from the caliber. Named the Rolex Milgauss, it is a portmanteau of mille (French for thousand) and gauss (the unit of measurement for magnetism).

Here are the key milestones in the history of the Rolex Milgauss.

1954 – The first ever cheap Rolex Milgauss copy watches was made with the ref 6543. This was more of a prototype with only around 150 units ever produced in a span of two years.

1956 – Rolex cites the succeeding ref 6541 as the official start of the Milgauss collection.

1960 – Rolex releases the third generation of the Milgauss with the ref 1019, removing its tool watch features, and replacing it with a far more understated aesthetic. Its movement was also upgraded to the Caliber 1580, which increased the balance frequency from 18,000vph to 19,800vph, and introduced a hacking seconds function.

1988 – Rolex discontinues the ref 1019. Many thought it would be the last of the Rolex Milgauss.

2007 – Rolex surprises the watch community when it reintroduced the long-absent Milgauss. The launch was timed to coincide with the completion of CERN’s Large Hadron Collider, the world’s highest-energy particle accelerator.

2014 – Rolex phases out the black model with the clear sapphire crystal, and introduced a new dial called the Z-Blue. In addition to having the green sapphire crystal, the Z-Blue comes with a unique electric blue sunburst finish with orange accents.

2016 – Rolex discontinues the white dial version of the 116400, leaving only the two green sapphire models in the brand’s current catalog.

Evolution of the Rolex Milgauss

The Rolex Milgauss had a long hiatus between the 1980s to the mid 2000s, so there are only a few references from the collection. Despite that, the Milgauss has a rich history and unique styling that makes it an ideal watch to collect. Below is a complete list of Rolex Milgauss references manufactured by Rolex, and their distinct characteristics.

Ref 6543 (1954 – 1956)
Caliber: 1080

This is the prototype Rolex Milgauss produced in limited numbers. It had an appearance similar to the Rolex Submariner, with its 37.5mm stainless steel case, bidirectional bezel, both painted and applied indices, and the Caliber 1080 – a standard movement for Rolex at the time. What wasn’t standard was the honeycomb pattern on the dial, and the soft iron cage surrounding the movement, which protects it from outside magnetic fields. This was the same reference tested and certified by CERN as being resistant to magnetic fields of up to 1,000 gauss.

Ref 6541 (1956 – 1960)
Caliber: 1080

This reference is cited by Rolex as the start of the Milgauss collection. It had all the same qualities as the previous 6543, except for one unique feature: the lightning-bolt shaped seconds hand. Despite its unique features, it was not much of a success, so Rolex scrapped most of the design by 1960.

Ref 1019 (1960 – 1988)
Caliber: 1580

The third generation of the Rolex Milgauss still possessed the soft iron cage and anti-magnetic qualities of the previous version, but its outside appearance was changed. It now featured a 38mm steel Oyster case, and a simpler dial with baton hour markers, a traditional seconds hand, and without the honeycomb pattern.

A special version of this dial was created for the scientists at CERN, which had no luminescence, as even a small amount of radioactive material could skew results in the laboratory.

This reference was a staple of the Rolex catalog for 30 years, until it was discontinued in 1988.

Ref 116400 / 116400GV (2007 –)
Caliber: 3131

The Rolex Milgauss re-emerged in 2007 in a resolutely modern design. It boasted a larger 40mm Oystersteel case with a smooth bezel and a polished finish. There were three dial designs initially available: a black dial and a white dial with luminous baton hour markers, orange accents, and an orange lightning-bolt seconds hand. The third option had the same features, but was given a novel element: a green-tinted sapphire crystal.

Powering the new Swiss made Rolex Milgauss replica watches was Rolex’s Calibre 3131, a COSC-chronometer certified movement which had the soft iron cage, but with added para-magnetic components for its balance hairspring.

In 2014, a new dial color was introduced, called the Z-Blue. The electric blue dial featured a sunburst finish. Paired with the green-tinted sapphire crystal and the orange accents, it continued the playful aesthetic of the modern Rolex Milgauss.

Today, only the green-tinted sapphire crystal models under ref 116400GV remain in Rolex’s catalog.

Popular Rolex Milgauss Models

In 2007, Rolex surprised everyone at Baselworld with the return of the anti-magnetic luxury Rolex Milgauss fake watches. Known for making small, evolutionary changes to their timepieces, Rolex created a splash with a playful, unexpected design that remains popular among those who seek an unconventional Rolex. Here are the most popular models from the Rolex Milgauss line:

For the return of the modern Milgauss in 2007, Rolex offered three different models: a white dial version, a black dial version, and a special anniversary version.

The Anniversary Model also had a black dial but came with a green sapphire crystal that was lightly tinted green, which gave the top Rolex replica watches a unique green halo. Adding more color to the watch is an orange lighting bolt seconds hand and 3-6-9 markers, plus orange minute indices. The suffix GV stands for French glace verte or Green Glass.

ROLEX MILGAUSS ref 116400GV Z-Blue

In 2014, Rolex released an even more colorful version of the modern Rolex Milgauss super clone watches wholesale– the Z-Blue dial, named such for its electric blue dial coated with Zirconium. Unlike classic blue watches made by Rolex, the metallic blue dial tends to veer towards green depending on how the light hits it.

It keeps all the same elements as the previous GV model but with the blue dial, this became one of Rolex’s most colorful modern models to date.

Dial design aside, the modern Rolex Milgauss models run on the same caliber 3131 movement, a COSC-certified movement with anti-magnetic features such as the Parachrom hairspring and a paramagnetic escape wheel.
