GF Avenger II GMT Uneven Bezel?

[Everett270]

I picked up a GF Avenger II GMT a little while back as my first rep and I've been quite pleased with it with the exception of one issue. You can tell by the way the bezel reflects light that it isn't perfectly flat. It's a bit hard to photograph but you can see by the numbers that it appears to be a bit low and by the riders it gets high. A small issue, but one that bugs me as it gets more and less obvious depending on the light. Has anyone else noticed this or did I just get a bad one (or am I just asking too much from a rep)? If it's an anomaly, does anyone know how I could source a new bezel or possibly even a gen piece? Thanks for the help.

Noticed this, too. But on my gen. This is caused by the fact that the bezel is manufactured from one piece. The riders are not seperate pieces like on a chronomat for example.
Forget about sourcing a gen bezel. It‘s nearly impossible.

GF‘s Avenger II GMT is a super rep. There‘s only one obvious flaw. The 3 o‘clock minute marker is a tad too short.

That does make sense. And if it's also present on the gen then I feel much better about it. Thanks for the info!

I never noticed that about mine but I try not to let little things bother me. Reps will always have flaws and they can ruin the experience if you let them. It's hard to ignore some but I have gotten pretty good at "blurring my vision" a bit where flaws are concerned. It's worth trying to do.
