Rolex Milgauss 116400 Black Dial Mar 2013

The Rolex Milgauss ref. 116400 is a distinctive tool watch designed for professionals working in magnetic environments, combining Rolex's legendary craftsmanship with specialized anti-magnetic protection. Housed in a robust 40mm stainless steel case with smooth bezel, this scientific instrument represents one of Rolex's most unique and purposeful timepieces, originally developed for scientists and engineers requiring precision timekeeping in high-magnetic field conditions.

This reference features a clean black dial with luminous hour markers and the iconic orange lightning bolt seconds hand—a signature design element that pays homage to the watch's scientific heritage. The dial's minimalist layout ensures optimal legibility while the distinctive orange accents create a subtle yet striking visual contrast against the deep black background, making this model instantly recognizable among Rolex enthusiasts.

At its heart beats the Rolex caliber 3131, a self-winding automatic movement capable of withstanding magnetic fields up to 1,000 gauss—far exceeding the resistance of standard watch movements. This Superlative Chronometer-certified caliber delivers exceptional precision and reliability, making it as functional as it is collectible for those seeking both horological excellence and practical utility.

Completed with the classic Oyster bracelet featuring a folding Oysterclasp, this Milgauss offers both comfort and security for daily wear. Presented in excellent condition with 2013 papers, the ref. 116400 represents an increasingly sought-after model among collectors who appreciate its unique position within the Rolex catalog as both a specialized tool watch and an accessible entry into luxury Swiss timekeeping.
