Well that is 5 minutes I won't get back, this is for a different model and there is no mention of the issue.
I think he might be talking about the lume, but all the pics are of GMT 2s in daylight and I can't see any green, perhaps the one at the ADs had snot on it

For me if you like it, perfect, and mate, I have a seawolf II gen and I know that I am talking.


Andyr, yes, in the daylight, you can see a domed saphiree pearl over the lume. The domed pearl is green/ gray.
The end.

And yet you still can't show us what the hell you're on about, if it is that pronounced it would be able to be captured pictorially and having a gen breitling doesn't mean anything, so have i. But let's part as friends and I will take a look in the Breitling store to see if I can see what you mean.

I thought this was going to be informative but just turned out to be frustrating...

Yes I was hoping our friend was going to be able to be a bit more specific but unfortunately I couldn't get what we were supposed to be seeing

I think the greenish is because of the lume, and probably because of the lights at the AD. And because the pearl on the gen is nog flat like on the rep the light gets reflected differently see picture below.

Ive had a Gen Avenger II Seawolf before and i never noticed any Green in the Pearl; unless you mean Lume.

It may reflect green under the right conditions, but it doesnt show green strongly and it wont show up in Pictures.

The much bigger issue is flat Pearl on the rep; compared to domed reflective Pearl on the Gen.

Nothing, just an image that I had, in case it served to clarify something, but I think not too much.
Ok thanks anyway and I guess what it says is that if its that hard to a. Define and b. To illustrate then its really not that much of an issue in the first place.

Yes you are right.
The domed pearl, under light conditions, reflect greenish or grey.
The rep is off, because the domed pearl. All the newest breit, with domed pearl, are different from reps.
I posted pics, for help the members in the forum, but
several members made fun of my contribution
