Besides the LHD Destro tudor I received this Blue boy. I really needed a summer watch so, I ordered a blue breitling GMT along with it.

Again, thanks to Andrew! Great guy and truly a trusty gentleman. Package arrived within 5 days, nothing to complain here.

Specs from Trusty;

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Case:

First thing I noticed was the 100% superb strong polished case, if I think of breitling a strong polished case is what crosses my mind. The factory did a great job on that. Really worth mentioning.

Bezel:

In contrast to the case the bezel has a satin/matte finish which pops out strongly, I love the combination of the two different finishings. The numbers in the bezel are also very crisp.

Dial:

As I already mentioned in my tudor review earlier today, I am a sucker for matte dials which this GMT also has! The bright white markers are popping out strongly.

Strap:

Butter soft with nice details like the text "Breitling''!

For the BR nitpickers, the datewheel is not sunken so you guys will love that. I am impressed with the overall quality factories nowadays are producing. The difference between REP and GEN are getting extremely close these days. I am happy with this blue summer watch... It looks sporty and classy. 100% satisfied!

Nice watch, I just got my new Avenger Skyland Chrono from Andrew. It ran for 20 minutes before it stopped dead. I had to send it to Rick914 to get fixed.

Mikey, watch looks great! I am trying to decide on the blue or the black. The blue looks really close to the original blue however is it me or the dial very grainy? Is the gen like this. I see the black is smooth. This could make my choice

Grainy dial is same as gen tho I'm not sure about the color. There are no gen vs rep comparison for the blue dial but looks great from the pics.

What color is the lume? I believe there was an issue with the previous version (or another factory version) with the lume color not being correct

I love this watch and I'm planning on buying a cream face version to set up with a brown strap
It would look lush

Does anyone know for sure if the hand stack is correct per gen on this one?

Looks like the rep order is dial, GMT, hour, minute, second.
