Rolex took a few brave decisions when it relaunched the Milgauss in 2007, almost 20 years after removing it from their catalogue. And it had to. The company, which is known for making very subtle changes over long periods of time, took what was one of its plainest properties and added a healthy dose of color. For the new model, reference 116400, Rolex went back to the lighting bolt shape for the seconds hand, and ditched the clean and clinical polished stainless steel in favor of a bright orange hand. The minutes track and hour markers received the same color treatment. Perhaps the most controversial introduction was made with the Anniversary Model which came with a crystal that was lightly tinted green and which gave the dial a unique halo. Rolex called it the Glace Verte (or Green Glass) and claims it doesn’t have a patent on it because it is so difficult to make.
