\nThe 40 mm stainless steel case protects the movement from magnetic fields up to 1,000 gauss. This is achieved by an inner soft-iron Faraday cage acting as a barrier against magnetic fields. The watch is also equipped with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal featuring a slight green shimmer at the edges, developed specifically for this model. The crystal gives the timepiece a unique character, as it is found exclusively in Milgauss models. <\/p>\n
\nThe white dial provides the perfect contrast to the bright orange lightning bolt seconds hand. The hour markers are filled with Chromalight luminescent material, ensuring excellent legibility even in low light conditions. The orange accent is repeated in the minute markers and the “Milgauss” lettering, making the design unique and striking. <\/p>\n
\nThe stainless steel Oyster bracelet is equipped with an Oysterlock safety folding clasp, which is both robust and comfortable on the wrist. The bracelet contributes to the sporty-elegant aesthetic of the Milgauss and ensures high stability and wearing comfort. <\/p>\n
\nInside the reference 116400 beats the Rolex caliber 3131, a self-winding mechanical movement specifically developed for the requirements of the Milgauss. It is equipped with a paramagnetic Parachrom hairspring and other anti-magnetic components, ensuring the watch’s precision is maintained even in magnetic environments. This movement offers a power reserve of approximately 48 hours and meets the strict requirements of a chronometer, as certified by the independent Swiss testing institute COSC.<\/p>\n
\nThe Rolex Milgauss line has always been known for its technical sophistication, making the watch resistant to magnetic fields. The model with the orange lightning bolt hand and white dial has become a popular model for collectors due to its striking design and the combination of science and aesthetics. Reference 116400 offers a successful blend of technical innovation and iconic Rolex aesthetics, making it an extraordinary timepiece.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
