I see some new Avenger 43mm GMT models on Trustytime. They're by OXF factory. Does anyone have any opinions on the quality of these reps? I usually look to GF factory for breitling reps but they currently only make the updated Avenger 43mm models without the GMT function. Here are a couple of links:

GF Avenger 43mm non-GMT:

GF Avenger 45mm GMT (too bad it's not 43mm)

Opinions on the OXF? I saw the updated Avenger 43mm at the AD yesterday and quite liked it.

A GMT watch should have a 24 hour scale IMO, either on the rehaut or the bezel. Having neither is an instant pass for me.

I agree I thought that was a strange move from Breitling when I saw it too and made a note to check it against the gen but forgot. Now that you mention it again, there's the instant flaw in the OXF - there's supposed to be a 24 hour scale on the rehaut!

D'oh that's a big flaw. Good to find out ahead of time! Decent looking watch otherwise. I have the 42mm earlier version so no need to upgrade but the diver bezel is a nice addition. That pic of the gen looks great.

Anything from OXF is an instant pass for me. Quality is poor and accuracy is way off.

Stick with GF if available:thumbsup:
