Hi,

I'm struggling to find more info on this particular watch. I've seen it on the "other" forum with a brown leather strap and really like it.
I understand that GF is usually a good call for Breitling reps (I shall receive the Bandit in the next couple of days or so).

However with the rep game being a slow game it's never too early to think about the next purchase. Which one of these do you recommend and why?

or

https://puretimewatch.io/superocean...ack-rubber-strap-a2824-free-rubber-strap.html

I understand the movement is different however I can't tell if the A2824 or Miyotea 9015 is preferrable.
Generally speaking the rep detail should be as close to the gen as possible apart from the movement.

The rubber strap will be replaced with a brown leather strap (none selected yet).

Thank you!

I have many GF watches and 2 OMF. I would describe OMF as the second tier factory. I only bought the OMF because GF will not make a 46mm watch. 46mm does not sell well in the Chinese market. I can't comment on the movement differences.
