Avenger Seawolf different factories?

[shultz]

Hi all,
my watch hobby had to pause for a while so I am sorry if this has been discussed possibly. I am considering the purchase of an Avenger Seawolf and noticed different makers: GF for example or a B50 factory? The latter is offered by intime and from the first view I like them much especially the fact that they are engined by an asian 2824 which can be swapped for a swiss eta. What's yoiur experience with that B50 factory? Should I go for that watch? I am appreciating your hints!

GF makes the best Breitling Avengers. Buy the GF. You will be happy.

Yes go with GF, or check the M2M section for the long gone HF as they come up occasionally…good luck.

Thanks to all! By the meantime I did some homework and came to the same conclusion. I already applied at some TDs for the GF version.
Thanks again to the community!

Hi, from my point of view the GF models come with a slightly better bezel engraving: The '30' is more narrow on the GF as on the genuine watch I would say. Anyway: Your yellow Seawolf is a n ice watch!

Yes, that's what you get it when the 'b' stands for Breitling

Back in the day, H-fac ruled the Breitling section. But they got seized and GF took there place. Really, gf is the only real option. Most of there watches are nwbig with minor flaws. There level of craftsmanship is outstanding. Other factories don't get the same level of quality.

These days you can get such great deals on gens that it's a better option

I found it on JTime but the pictures don't seem quite so black coated case?
Will ask them for confirmation.
THANKS!
