Getting To Know The Place
I bought my HF Skyland Avenger toward the end of 2016. In April of 2018 HF was seized and never recovered. Now you can only find them on M2M and you better be nimble to grab it.

Any love for Avenger nowadays? Still deciding between Breitling - Avenger 2017 Chronograph TI/NY Grey/Num GF V2 A7750 Mod vs Breitling - Avenger Bandit SS/NY Black/Num GF Asian 7750. any comments?
GF aren't available anymore. I've been considering TF, OXF, and V9F versions of what you've linked. Not a whole lot of info or love for those factories on here from what I've found, but I'll likely take a gamble on one of them at some point. Trusty time has videos of some of them.
No. For whatever reasons, which are beyond my comprehension, people just don’t want Breitling anymore, which is absurd.
BLS is currently the only factory producing anything remotely decent, and they’re severely overpriced due to scarcity I would assume.
The flaws and tells on BLS of any model are so much that if it were a Datejust 41, people would throw a shit fit.
That’s pretty much the state of reps today; anything but the most common “look at me, I’m rich now!” watches are still at the same quality they were 10 years ago for a mid grade factory, with very few models being taken as seriously.
They can do it, they just won’t. Too many noobs and Rolex fanboys toady screaming for the most expensive models to be repped, and all the focus goes to these. Hell, even just 5 years ago we never would’ve imagined that a reliable 4130 would ever be made, yet it has. It’s where the money is. People want a watch everyone can recognize easily and not have to answer questions, God forbid.
