= Rolex Milgauss =


The Milgauss is the Rolex built for scientists, for the physicists, engineers, and lab technicians who worked alongside magnetic-field equipment. The line opens in 1956 with the 6541, the first wristwatch with a soft-iron Faraday cage rated to 1,000 gauss. CERN supplied the original validation: its Geneva labs were among the first to confirm Rolex's antimagnetic claim against published scientific measurement standards. Three canonical references run across sixty-seven years before the line closes at Watches & Wonders Geneva in 2023.
