Which factory are you referring to? ZF? I’m on the fence and can’t decide between the ZF and GF versions of this watch. Jybreitling’s GF looks pretty awesome to me. I guess I would be very happy with that quality. But I’m looking for some pros/cons (GF vs ZF). Can someone enlighten me?

GF is better. ZF makes some nice watches but their Quality Control is the worst of any of the factories. Buy the GF. You will be happy.

yes, GF is better in every way compared to ZF but ZF has double AR crystal. DLC coating darker and more matte compared to GF's satin brushed finish (which gen has both variants).

I love the Blackbird GF v4, but also this Avenger GMT, i attached the pic.

Anyone with information on the quality of the latter, we already know about GF's amazing work on the Blackbird, but do we know anything about GMT?

I am about to sell mine. A beautiful watch but getting no wrist time. Quality is excellent.
