12 Rolex Milgauss Watches to Experiment With

Written By: Paul Altieri

Nerding out with the scientist’s watch: The Milgauss

With its distinctive lightning bolt hand and colorful accents, the Milgauss is Rolex’s funkiest watch with plenty of character. Originally conceived and developed for scientists exposed to high magnetic fields, the Rolex for scientists, the Milgauss has always been enjoyed by those outside of the scientific community too. Here are a dozen Instagram shots, including both modern and vintage models, celebrating the Milgauss’ quirky charm.
