The one that a great many people didn't expect as a Rolex curiosity at Baselworld 2014… We definitely realized that the Black Dial adaptation without the green precious stone (Ref. 116400) would have been eliminated. What the watch world didn't expect was the appearance of another form of the Milgauss, particularly one with a blue dial.
However, we should concede, with less wonderful shading. Also, once on the wrist, we should state that the 'Z Blue' (its epithet) is a really fascinating curiosity. Give us a chance to acquaint you with the Rolex Milgauss Blue Dial Ref. 116400GV.

HISTORY OF THE MILGAUSS
The Milgauss – which means 1000 Gauss in French – was presented in 1956 as THE antimagnetic watch for the individuals who worked in power plants, medicinal offices and research labs, (for example, the CERN near Geneva) where extraordinary electromagnetic fields can influence the planning of a watch. A portion of the moving pieces of a watch, for example, the parity haggle, are touchy to electromagnetic fields that can influence the abundancy of their run thus change the recurrence of the development.
An issue that some of you have confronted once with your own watches (because of PC or cell phone attraction for instance). Yet, with regards to working in such conditions throughout the day, an antimagnetic watch is plainly a need. A straightforward arrangement is to house the development in a faraday confine, a defensive walled in the area framed by a directing material, generally delicate iron.

Milgauss presented in 1956, as the Ref. 6451
The absolute first form of the Milgauss presented in 1956, as the Ref. 6451, was very close in its plan and particulars to a 1953 Rolex Submariner Ref. 6204. The larger than average Oyster case, the dark pivoting bezel with a red triangle at 12, the bolted metallic wrist trinket and the non-secured Twin-Lock crown could be found on both the Milgauss and Sub. Be that as it may, aside from the faraday confine and the antimagnetic limit, the principle contrasts were a honeycomb finished darkly.
dial, alpha hands (rather than the 'Mercedes hands'), explicit triangular records at 3-6-9 and an extraordinary 'lightning' hand for the seconds, just to help you to remember the motivation behind the watch. The Ref. 6451 has an old-style Rolex gauge, 1080, as the antimagnetic properties originate from the case and the dial (additionally in delicate iron) and not from the development.

The Ref. 6451 has an old-style Rolex gauge, 1080, as the antimagnetic properties originate from the case and the dial (additionally in delicate iron) and not from the development.
The fundamental development was the presentation in 1960 of the Ref. 1019, demonstrating a progressively old-style structure, with a case near an Oyster Date. On the Ref. 1019 the dark pivoting bezel cleared a path for a cleaned and fixed steel bezel, and the 'lightning' second hand for a traditional straight one. The dial was accessible both in dark or light dim, with applied implement markers and all the more straight hands. The watch was keeping its 1000 Gauss opposition, consistently with the assistance of a faraday confine. This model has been expelled from the Rolex inventory in 1988.
2007 saw the resurrection of the antimagnetic gathering of Rolex with the Ref. 116400. Despite the fact that the Milgauss was not by a wide margin as mainstream as the Submariner or Daytona, the costs of old models used to be very amazing in closeouts and the watch remain profoundly alluring to gatherers. Moreover, in the present day, positions which require working in attractive conditions are progressively normal, particularly in IT. That might be the motivation behind why Rolex reintroduced the Milgauss, with the details we currently know: 40mm case, a dark dial/green precious stone form, a white dial form, the now notorious 'lightning' second hand and a few orange tips on the files and hands.
The primary distinction with the past ages of Milgauss is the antimagnetic development: if the old models depended on a delicate iron walled in area to secure the development, the enhanced one decides on an antimagnetic hairspring (the blue Parachrom) encased in an attractive shield made out of an attractive porousness material. Not exclusively is the watch is secured against electrostatic fields yet in addition against attractive fields. In any case, Omega is improving since their 15,000 Gauss-verification watches are not founded on a defensive case, yet on a totally new development that is completely antimagnetic, that permits slimmer watches and even a transparent case back.
You may wonder why the new Milgauss is (as of now) nicknamed 'Z Blue'. The explanation is that the electric blue dial is covered with Zirconium. The principle oddity of this reference is that the blue tone is brilliant and, as it introduces a sunburst metallic completion, it goes from a dark blue to a water blue with green reflections, contingent upon the light conditions. At the point when the watch was exhibited, we were questionable pretty much the entirety of its various hues - blue dial, white lists, orange second hand and markers, green-tinted gem. In the substance, however, the mix works incredible, as the precious stone and dial coordinate with green reflections and the orange stands out well from the remainder of the watch, making a unique environment - a long way from the monochromatic look of a Submariner.
For the rest, the Ref. 116400GV 'Z Blue' is a Milgauss, which has a sensible width of 40mm, a cleaned hardened steel case (water-safe up to 100m) and a fully agreeable clam armlet with Easylink organizer fasten (that permits simple miniaturized scale changes). As to the vast majority of Rolexes, it wears incredible, even with its 157 grams. The dial, besides its blue shading, highlights white gold markers and the hands are loaded up with white Chromalight, and there is the unmistakable orange moment edge.
The blue Milgaus is unquestionably separate from the remainder of the Rolex extent, as all the Milgauss have consistently been. The blue dial offers some greater capriciousness to a brand that some may consider traditionalist, however, needs a purchaser to whom that brilliant shading blend requests. The Ref. 116400GV is valued at CHF 7.800.
