Explorer 1 or Milgauss GV

[Dunbine]

Been fascinated with Rolex Milgauss GV but recently the Explorer 1 caught my attention. Contemplating to get either one in the near future but still lost on which to decide on.

For other years, I may choose Explorer 1, however, this year I will choose Milgauss GV

[watch_that_man]

have you tried on any before?

You should if you have not.From experiences, looking at photos or on somebody's wrist wont convince you

Explorer I has a very clean and formal look. Between the two, I prefer the Explorer I. Cheaper too.

[watch_that_man]

if you are referring to the older exp1, I feel its a little small

[Dunbine]

I've tried both the milgauss and 36mm explorer but not the 39mm yet. Can't make up my mind.

I prefer the milgauss gv. Depending whether u like clean simple dial ot something slightly more unique the thunderbolt hand and green glass.

Between the 2... I feel the milgauss will stay with me longer because it is more interesting

EXP 1 or milgauss

I hv both, they are diferent. Exp 1 39mm is light, clean, understated and cheaper to buy. Milgauss is thicker and heavier with a nice balance, costs more and is very useful if u fly often, protected fr magnetic fields at airport check ins. Its a close contest!

I have the 39mm Explorer. Love the size and weight and classic clean cut look. Put on a Milgauss and I felt the weight and it is relatively more chunky. You need to put on the watches to make a good decision.

[Dunbine]

Thanks for the inputs fellas. Guess I really need to try it again to decide!

[ngokyc]

Better to try them on yourself. I will choose GV for its uniqueness and size.

[Dunbine]

One thing that I really like about the milgauss GV is the green glass and the weight of the watch.

[Salvatore123]

What is the differences between green and non green glass? Just the color diff or something else?

[jetaime]

Explorer 1! It's has a nice classic feel.

Milgauss is really an acquired taste.

For 1st rolex or one-and-only rolex, go for exp1.

If you not planning to stop at one, it doesn't matter as you may end up owning both! lol
