Introducing the watches of famous sports and artistic figures

Navid Mohammadzadeh attended the 75th Annual Cannes Film Festival wearing a Rolex Milgauss 116400GV in stainless steel with a Z blue dial. You may ask yourself why the new Milgauss is already nicknamed ‘Z Blue’. The reason is that the electric blue dial is coated with zirconium. Naturally, the roots of the Rolex Milgauss remain in its anti-magnetic capabilities. Though still listed as resistant to at least 1,000 gauss, there’s much speculation that the actual spec is significantly higher. Not only is the watch protected against electrostatic fields but also against magnetic fields. The movement is the same Rolex caliber 3131, a COSC-certified movement running at 4 Hz with a parachrom hairspring, paramagnetic nickel-phosphorous escape wheel, and a power reserve of 48 hours.
