Worth it?

[Marcoman]

HI guys, i'd appreciate any opinion on my imminent next purchase. I have it narrowed down to GF avenger seawolf yellow blacksteel, GF avenger GMT black or white and randomly, a black pelagos. Its not life changing decision stuff as Im pretty sure i'll cover them all in the next few months eventually and after I try to offload some dead wood.

I'm leaning towards the seawolf yellow blacksteel this time. However, I do already have a SS yellow steelwolf on a grey leather which I picked up M2M. I'm not sure what factory, orbis I think and I know the colour to be off noticeably if side by side. When I read about the GF version being spot on (or as good as) for colour, it got me interested and with the black steel, I think its an awesome combination, much and all as I like it in stainless steel.

So my simple question is, would the GF version in blacksteel be worth it? I know i'll probably get the whole, get what you like, but i'm hoping some of you guys have seen GF version, gen or obris/ANF versions side by side to know if the GF is close....

Thanks guys....

Black GMT on ss bracelet would be my choice

Black GMT on ss bracelet would be my choice

Is that a personal preference or because the gf seawolf yellow in blacksteel is not that good? Thanks....

Purely personal preference mate, I haven't seen the yellow compared with the gen so can't comment but the GF GMT is very very close to gen. There's been a slight hiccup with the latest batch of GMTs as the movements they fitted have the wrong date font, but its not a huge deal and gen uses a pretty standard eta wheel, so can easily be swapped otherwise its bang on.
