The magnetic field resistant Rolex Milgauss 116400V is powered by an automatic 3131 movement and has a green sapphire crystal.  The green coloring of the crystal can be seen on the edges of the crystal as it connects to the polished steel bezel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 3131 is  a perpetual self-winding movement with a 48 hour power reserve.  It has a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring oscillator at its core – providing excellent resistance to magnetic interference.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coloring of the Milgauss is unique among Rolex timepieces.  The black dial is adorned with hour markers – mostly white except for the orange markers at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock.  The seconds notation is marked around the edge of the dial in orange. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hour and minute hands are a unique extension of the luminescent hour markers – utilizing a similar rectangular shape as opposed to the typical sword shape of most Rolex hour and minute hands.  Even more surprising is the orange lightning bolt for the seconds hand. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combined with the complimentary green glow of the Glace Verte sapphire crystal the orange-green combination provides a unique and sporty look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
