Rolex Milgauss Polar Dial
£8000.00
The Rolex Milgauss Ref. 116400 White Dial is one of the most distinctive modern sports watches Rolex has ever produced. Originally designed for engineers and scientists working in environments exposed to strong magnetic fields, the Milgauss combines technical purpose with an unmistakable aesthetic identity.
This particular example is presented as a full set, complete with its original box, papers, tags and accessories. The crisp white “Polar” dial is among the most sought-after configurations of the Milgauss line, offering a clean and highly legible contrast against the vivid orange accents that define the model. The signature lightning bolt seconds hand and orange minute track give the watch an unmistakable character, balancing playful design with unmistakable Rolex build quality.
Housed in a 40mm Oyster case and fitted to its original Oyster bracelet, the Milgauss offers a reassuring wrist presence without feeling oversized. Beneath the surface sits Rolex’s anti-magnetic shielding system, developed to protect the movement from magnetic interference up to 1,000 gauss, a feature that inspired the model’s name.
The white dial Milgauss occupies an interesting place in Rolex history. Produced in far smaller numbers than black dial examples and now discontinued alongside the wider Milgauss line, it has become increasingly appreciated by collectors seeking something slightly different from the traditional Submariner or Datejust route. It remains one of the few Rolex sports models to combine technical heritage with such an unconventional and recognisable design language.
A complete, full set example such as this offers both collectability and everyday wearability, equally suited to enthusiasts who appreciate modern Rolex references with genuine individuality.
Included with this watch:
Original box and papers
Full set accessories
Thorough in-house inspection and authentication
12-month in-house mechanical warranty for complete peace of mind
