I've been trying to order one this week but I'm told all colour dials are currently out of stock and no ETA for new stock! :cryingbadly:

I’ve been toying between Avenger GMT and the new SOH, waiting for the review of the new SOH. Can’t believe no ETA for the Avenger GMT I thought this was a popular watch!!

Why do you want an ETA, there's nothing wrong with the standard movement, mine works like a trooper.

Thanks for the info...guess we will wait!

It's a shame as I just got my hands on a gen Pro III ss polished bracelet.

andyr I meant I’m disappointed there’s no estimated time of arrival for the Avenger GMT, BigBoo says TD new stock. I hope GF haven’t discontinued the watch!!Sorry

I just received my avenger gmt II Arabic numerals on SS bracelet from Puretime and I have to say this is my 2nd favourite watch in my collection (second only to a rose gold navitimer). I have looked and I actually don't see any flaws at all on this model including date font... Does anyone else?

I had one, only fault I could see is the date font some numbers are off eg 2, 8 are the biggest one that you can see. The dial is amazing in sunlight, GF is producing some amazing pieces.

I haven't looked at the 8 but y'know even the 2 I don't think I could tell the difference with them side by side..

Very satisfied

 

[Thatwatchguy]

I knew the date was off but I bought it anyway, it was more noticeable for me as I have the blacksteel version with the correct date wheel.

Did anybody know, can i swap the movement with gen ETA2893-2 with GMT function, can i use this hands or need to buy and gen hands too ?

Don’t know about swapping the movement but I’m not sure it is needed as the GMT is functional.

 

[prelude]

I don't think movement can be changed with 2893-2. Experts please charm in.

I hav Eterna GMT with ETA2893-2 and soon will go to watchsmith to try swap the movements and will inform you for the results

Go to the Tech Section and look under Movements, Various. There is info on this movt there.

Hi everyone, do you guys think I could pull off an Avenger Gmt on Diver Pro III strap (GF stock rubber) at 6.5 in wrist, rather flat shaped. I know these Breitling straps do run pretty long.

Best regards.

I’m about to pull the trigger on this GMT... has anyone discussed making the watch water resistance up to 6 atm so I can swim with it?
