GF Avenger GMT 2 on Bracelet Pictures

[Swerepguy]

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?

Weight it and google the gen weight

From Breitling homepage

Weight (without strap)93.75 gr.
One review said 171g on braclet

The problem is that I don't have a gen to weight lol

all good I'm getting used to it and my wife thinks its a best watch lol

I get that. You can find out the weight on the internet.

I talked to puretime yesterday. They told me that the date font is correct again.

Can anyone confirm the Lug to lug length?
Confirming for my puny 6.5" wrists.

Should be easy to just screw them out, early batches a little WD40 and all good.

As for rep vs gen they are night and day, I bought the gen bracelet as was dissatisfied with the rep.

try soaking the bracelet in hot water, or use a hairdryer to blast the links before trying to unscrew the screws.

And dont use those cheap ass spectacle screwdrivers, they will damage the screws cos they are so soft, invest in a pair of good 1.4mm screwdrivers (Esslinger, bergeon etc)

Thanks for the tips guys, will try the heating method. Good to see that this piece still has fans????

Still unable to remove the links.. The screw wasn't the problem.. I'm able to remove them.. But the top and bottom links just wouldn't come off..

Update: finally manage to remove the links with the help of a small pliers splitting then open between the gap in the links (of course with small towel in between for protection).

A bath in baby oil over night or more will help a lot. I bought an inexpensive heated ultrasonic cleaner that worked as well.

 

[desectro]

It'll be a common issue after some time as dirt may also cause the links to be slightly difficult to come off. I have an ultrasonic cleaner would probably utilize it the next round if I face the same prob

Message from Lucy is that she has had 3 members wanting to buy the bracelet version with the correct date font, but there are none left at GF. This may be rectified in the next batch and GF boss is aware but this can't be guaranteed. I would still recommend getting the watch as its a cracker especially with the correct pearl, and the datefont isn't that noticeable and relatively easy to change. Just go for it!

So has the peael been updated to match the gen?

This would be my watch, but I hate the mirror polished bracelet

Hello everyone. I’m thinking to order avenger gmt from GF. But i still confuse about bezel rotation to the left only or can rotation both side?
one more thing. Can i swap movement 2893-2 to this watch? Because avenger gmt use movement B32 base on eta2893-2
Thank a lot
