I spoke to Andrew (trusty time) tonight and he said GF factory will open again in March? Not sure if true, but wanted to pass along. Has anyone else heard any news?

GF factory
- Thread starter Derik429
- Start date
I don't know how much truth lays in statements like this - maybe he wants to hold funds of already paid watches... (He is not a TD anymore here)
Even though - if it is true the rep world will profit from this as they made the best Breitling reps until now.

Hmmm as I understood the maker himself was arrested therefore it might be someone else is taking his name and re-starting the business...let's see if the quality will be the same, GF attention to small details was amazing
That’s what I heard too, I have always dealt with Andrew and he’s been top notch for years, so a big part of me believes he’s telling the truth. Time will tell!

I don't know exactly mate. But you get no support over here if you have to deal with certain issues buying from him...
No, thanks, not here for support with dealers, I have already dealt with Andrew several times in the past, and he was excellent, that is why I was wondering why he lost the trust of this community.
Regarding GF, I was looking for a Franck Muller recently, and Andrew was able to source it from GF, he stated he is in connection with the owner of the factory, who was obviously not raided. So his source of info might be relevant.

That’s great news too, I asked him about GF Breitlings when I heard about the raid and he said he was able to get some, but not the specific one I was looking for cause of bezel

He and Josh (Perfect Clones) are some of the largest rep dealers by volume. They used their buying power to form a "cartel" of sorts and leveraged it to unfairly compete against the other dealers. RWI doesn't support that sort of behavior so they lost their endorsement as Trusted Dealers from RWI.

Me too. I have been waiting for some factory to release a Franck Muller V41 model. the vanguard V41 is really nice. The V45 by TF is not bad but it is way too large. If a new owner takes over hopefully they can produce some more vanguard models.

Indeed made the best Breitling reps. Although I only have the one. Just by comparing the gf to omf, it's far superior
Would definitely be trying more if they come back
