Chris,

I want to know your opinion if your engi compared to Millgauss (dont bother abt the pricing, assume you able to own both of it)  ???

both actually very different except both with soft iron case that provide maximum antimagnetic!

I made my choice to buy ingenieur due to

1. GG design attracted me. not because i dislike milgauss.... but it still very rolex look as a whole.... neutral feeling! in fact i do not like too colorful of the milgauss dial

2. case size.... 42.5mm ingenieur just nice on my wrist

3. milgauss got no date, a bracelet watch meant for daily wear, no date is bit weird

4. rarity... ingenieur is discountinued!
