Breitling Avenger PVD Reps!

[Fedon06]

Hi folks,

I’m in the market for a GF Breitling now. Tried the steel Avenger from GF before and it was really nice, my only concern was the extremely shiny case. Now I want to try a pvd version and checked my TDs sites. But it seems that there is a significant price difference between the two pvd avengers

anyone knows what is the reason of this dlfference?

Also, I lile buying high end reps and using & abusing them does anyone have some comments of how pvd will hold up on long term daily usage?

I have one GF watch I use as a beater on weekends. It's the Bandit Titanium version by GF. The dings and scratches don't really show up. The DLC finish will withstand more abuse than the PVD finish but the websites don't seem to know the difference.

Here is the bandit by V9F but it is not Titanium.

As a daily beater I recommend this one: https://www.intime06.co/breitling/6...-on-black-rubber-strap-a2824-v4-free-box.html

Superrep/nwbig, light and sturdy. I use mine often as daily beater. Very comfortable and not a scratch on it.

(I really, really like my Bandit. But in my opinion, the blackbird is even a better daily beater.)

I had the 43mm avenger II DLC for about three years mostly a daily and the finish had a few light marks as expected but held up extremely well…not sure why I sold it it is an extremely well made rep.

The colour also matched my gen black steel deployant, it’s like a lead pencil.

I missed a dlc watch and was lucky to pick up a blackbird M2M just waiting for it to arrive.

This one should be titanium but the rep is ss coated

Bandit maybe an option too, it’s titanium, not as bling as the steel models.
