I really hope GF improve there AR and pearl. The AR is great in most angles, but in some angles it has a huge blue/purple reflection. The pearls should be more ‘glass like’.

Breitlings generally had a blue AR though. Unsure how they are now, but 8+ years ago all the gens had that AR hue.

Yes, they still do. But there’s a difference between a blue hue and a big blue reflection. I’ve got serval Breitlings and all of them got different AR qua. Just received my GF Avenger Bandit crystal back from the prof with his coating.

Btw, I found out a very easy pearl mod. Just put a drop of nail polish on it.

(I’m busy making a even better pearl mod. )

Round 2 of QC images. Seems like to be back on track on the quality that made GF what it is today!

Two things I noticed though is one the scratches on nr 45 and the other one is the offset in seconds per day. 17 per day is much even for a chinese A2824, but I will exchange it for an ETA 2824 so that is no biggie. Still no word if it is old stock or not

Hi Everyone Here is my QC pics for AVeneger 2 GMT DLC, my concern is the Datefont seems to be the incorrect one. Also not sure if the dlc is up to standard or not. Can you assist in confirming if the paint is good ?? Seems off to me tbh.

Ofcourse you are asking foor QC feedback...
Accept it and enjoy it, there is nothing bad to say about this watch.

If this is the new batch, you will have to tell us if it is up to standard.

Greetz!

Hello,
Just arrived, it's a V3 or not?

It's not an avenger blackbird, only an avenger gmt.

​​​​​​GF only released a v3 of the blackbird. The gmt has almost no room for improvement, so no V2, v3 etc.

Lets just hope they have not gone backwards, have seen a member post that the date font has changed not the same as gen.

That makes 2 different date fonts for the blacksteel/dlc and 3 for the ss version:(
