GF Avenger GMT 2 on Bracelet Pictures

It makes me even more worried, my wrist is just 6,5 inch (16,5cm) :D It looks just about perfect on you, the right sweetspot so it has enough wrist pressence and can't be bashed for being oversized. I'm kind of built, not skinny but my wrists are.. so I'm afraid the lugs would hang over :/ It's really impossible to find lug to lug anywhere

Go for it. I also have a 6.5 inch wrist and tried the Gen at an AD a few weeks ago...perfect fit even with the bracelet. Those downward sloping lugs plus the extreme thinness for a Breitling help a lot.

Watch diameter is 43mm from outside of bezel tab at 9 to outside of bezel tab at 3, and 42mm not including the tabs. So rep is very accurate.

Good to know thanks! Just paid my TD for my black one so should be here by Christmas as planned......ordered a SS buckle also so that I can use it and others with rubber strap.

I'm still deciding between blue and black but I will be ordering today! I don't think I'll recieve it before christmas tho, might aswell have something to look forward to after xmas.. The dealer recommends shipping via UK. It's more expensive and takes ~20 days.. is it worth it? I never had problems with packages from china but then again, I never bought rep Breitling..

For europe I would suggest going with triangulation shipping via UK. It might be more expensive and take a bit more, but this way you're sure you'll get the watch. You don't want to get into trouble with your customs, even if the likelihood is very small I wouldn't take the risk.

Hi mrnobody,
My wrist is also 16.5 cm
Here you could see a wrist shot of the gen GMT 43mm on the left and Colt 41mm right.

I'd love a 41 mm Colt rep. In the meantime triying to find a 41mm second hand Colt (gen), but there is very little offer and expensive compare with brand new offers.

Can someone show us the difference between the DWO's on the first batch and the second? Not sure what to look for

Nice! I think that's on the edge aesthetically. Would depend on proportions of the rest of your body. COLT 41 rep was mentioned to be relased in most recent colt thread btw.

Hey guys, so my QC pics just arrived. What do you think about the pearl specificaly? Here is the picture:

It looks kinda flat to me. I think the datefont is wrong too, but I'm okay with that. From what I've read TDs can't do much about it.. Any help would be appreciated because it's my first rep purschase.

(Feel free correct me if this is against the rules, as I understood it's ok to ask about specific flaws. If not I apologize..)

Looks good to me. I think your pearl is probably fine i.e. domed, pics aren't high res but zooming in it looks like it is. Bezel lines up nicely, nothing to reject this for. Enjoy it and let us see pics when you get it [emoji16]

I got my bracelet but I feel like ts very lightweight and makes alot of crinkly noise. Ive never owned a breitling so I don't know what to expect. feels cheap but comfortable and looks great. Is this close to gen on terms of feel or is this just standard for rep bracelet quality.

In what way does it feel cheap? Can't say i've noticed it with mine, might help to post a pic.

A pic wont do justice as it looks great, I'm just saying if feels light weight. Wondering if someone can chime in on how the feel compares to a gen bracelet?

Weigh it and see if it weighs the same as the gen, if it does then that is how the gen will feel
