The Rolex Milgauss was created for the scientific community and was considered a masterpiece of its time. It never reached the same highs of popularity as some of the other sports watches and was discontinued in 1986. While it is not the most sought-after of vintage Rolex watches it still commands interest from collectors.

Six things to look for in your Rolex Milgauss
Dial
Subtle variations in the dial and text decoration on your Rolex Milgauss can help you to identify your model and the specific edition of that model.
- The position of ‘MILGAUSS’ above or below the centre.
- Is the 12o’clock marker a triangle or the Rolex logo?
- Are the hour markers circles & triangles or batons?
- Is the dial black or natural metal?
- Seconds, half-seconds or quarter-seconds shown
Hands
There are changes and progressions of hand style, size, colour and decoration. The material the hands are made from, the luminous paint used to decorate them and position of the seconds hand triangle are all key distinguishing points for different editions.
- Leaf shaped hands were used on the earliest edition
- Angled or flat hands used on later editions
- The lightning bolt seconds hand was introduced on the fourth edition 6541
Crown & Bezel
Like with other factors, subtle variations in the bezel were introduced to the Milgauss over the years and can be used to distinguish different models and editions, which in turn can indicate the age of your watch.
- Black submariner-type bezel?
- Black Milgauss- type bezel; marked 1 – 5 with red triangle
- Metal unmarked bezel introduced from model 1019
Box & Papers
When looking to value your vintage Rolex Milgauss the original box and papers should be present to get the best valuation for your timepiece.
If your Milgauss has an interesting history you should also source the proper provenance (paperwork, photographs etc.) in order to get the best prices and attract collectors.
Condition
When considering the condition of your Rolex Milgauss first check that wear is the same all over. If a certain part of the watch shows more or less wear then this can indicate that some parts have been replaced or repaired, which can impact the value. However, damaged watches can still be valuable, especially if they are pieces with an interesting history.
Reference & serial No.
Found at the 6’oclock side of the case on vintage Rolex, the serial number is the watch’s unique identity and shows when it was made. The reference number is on the 12o’clock edge and describes the model and what your Rolex Milgauss is made from. The model and time of production are two of the most important factors in determining the value of your Rolex.

“I found Mark’s details online after looking to sell a collectable bottle of whisky. I was going to use a well know auction site but Mark secured an offer higher than the highest estimation from any auction house, within days, even after the 10% commission was deducted. Communication was perfect; punctual, to the point and polite. Collection and delivery were taken care of by Mark and instruction was clear and easy to follow. Payment was received to my bank within days of posting the bottle. I can’t recommend Mark enough; he runs a tight ship gets top end offers from his clients and delivers quickly.”

“Mark conducted a high value sale transaction for me acting as broker. A complex process, clearly explained at each step of the way. Great communication and willing to go the extra mile when it mattered. Entirely trustworthy and highly recommended.”
Mark Williams, via Google
“Wow, what a refreshing change it was to meet Mark. He was the consummate professional with an approachable and warm personality who clearly had an in-depth knowledge of his subject which he used to give me a first-class service when I wanted to sell a whisky collection. For anyone who is considering any similar specialist whisky transactions I can certainly recommend him without reservation.”
