A superb opportunity to acquire the now discontinued Rolex Milgauss reference 116400GV, one of the most distinctive and underrated models ever produced by Rolex. Discontinued in 2023, the Milgauss has rapidly become a favourite amongst collectors thanks to its unique design, scientific heritage and production run that never matched the popularity of Rolex’s mainstream sports models.

This exceptional example is presented as a complete full set from 2015 and was sold through the Rolex Certified Pre-Owned programme by Goldsmiths in September 2025, complete with receipt and the balance of the Rolex CPO warranty remaining.

Having been professionally serviced and refinished by Rolex prior to its Certified Pre-Owned sale, this watch remains in outstanding condition throughout.

Our View

The Milgauss has always been a watch for enthusiasts. Originally designed for scientists and engineers working in environments exposed to magnetic fields, it evolved into one of the most unique references in the Rolex catalogue.

The combination of the green sapphire crystal, black dial and distinctive orange lightning bolt seconds hand gives the 116400GV a personality unlike any other Rolex. Since its discontinuation, collector interest has increased significantly, particularly for full-set examples with strong provenance.

The addition of Rolex Certified Pre-Owned documentation and warranty makes this example especially desirable, offering both collectability and peace of mind. As values continue to strengthen for discontinued Milgauss references, this represents a fantastic opportunity to acquire one of Rolex’s most characterful modern watches.
