The green-tinted sapphire crystal fitted to the reference 116400GV Milgauss has quickly become one of the defining characteristics of Rolex’s anti-magnetic line of watches. The Rolex Milgauss was first introduced in 1956; however, it was not until 2007 that it received its now-signature, green sapphire crystal – an exclusive feature that was originally introduced as a way for Rolex to celebrate the 50th anniversary of their Milgauss line.No other watch in Rolex’s current catalog is fitted with a green-tinted (or any other color) sapphire crystal. However, at the present time, all Milgauss watches that are currently in production leave the factory with green sapphire crystals. Rather than simply being a layer or coating, the light green tint is present throughout the entire material of the crystal, and will not fade or discolor after prolonged wear and use.Rolex claims that it took them many years of research and development to master and perfect the secret procedure of manufacturing their green-tinted sapphire crystals and that the actual process of producing the crystals takes multiple weeks. What is most interesting is that despite a usual eagerness to patent their various in-house technologies, Rolex claims that the green sapphire crystal in the Milgauss is “not patented, as it is so difficult to make that no one else would even venture to try.”Rolex will never reveal their exact formulas and secrets about how they manufacture the green-tinted sapphire crystals fitted to the Milgauss; however, we do know some general information about green-colored synthetic sapphire and the production of sapphire watch crystals as a whole.There are a number of different ways to produce synthetic sapphire, all of which fall into the following general methods of production: melt growth, solution growth, and high-temperature/high-pressure growth. It is hypothesized that Rolex uses a hydrothermal method of production for its synthetic sapphire crystals, which is slow, expensive, and uses heat and pressure to imitate the conditions present deep inside the earth that is responsible for the production of naturally-occurring crystalline gemstones.
The case head is very big, so making the connecting steel bracelet look narrow, so the whole replica watch does not look as harminous as black Submariner, however, it is made for professional divers, it will act as an important role as long as being able to 3900m waterproof. But this replica Rolex 116660 James Cameron watch is water resistant to 50 meters. The case back has two pieces, the central black one is Titanium seal, the back has the same construction as genuine watch. The bezel engravings are filled with platinum painting.The most beautiful place of the replica lies in its dial. The blue to black gradient of the dial is called D-Blue. Gradual effect on the dial ia perfect and natural, the upper blue is like ocean color, while the black bottom dial symbolizes the darkest Mariana Trench. The dial color is 100% the same as genuine watch. 3D hour markers feature silver edge and are filled white luminous material like hands. The dial lume is more powerful than any other Submariner or Sea-Dweller replica watches.Why this replica Rolex D-Blue watch sold at such a high price? First, its waterproof system is better made, the one-piece screw-down crown features O Ring system, besides, the crown tube is thick and perfectly matches the threads. Second, the better movement is also one reason. The replica is equipped with a Super Asian 3135 movement, which is the best 3135 currently installed on Submariner 116610 LN and Sea-Dweller Deepsea. Do not be cheated by other scam dealers, they usually charge you the 3135 movement fee but sending you an Asian ETA movement watch, if you want to know how to identify without opending the case back, please leave comment here.
