Question About Generation of Movement on Avenger II

I own a Breitling avenger II automatic 43 (model number A17318101C1X1) and I am trying to figure out if the movement is a second gen or first gen movement? I believe the model with this serial number began production around 2019 but wanted to be sure.

I see no one posted a response. I don't know about the
" generations". But around 2018 when ETA stop selling there movements or kits outside the swatch group, Breitling B17 and B13 movements are now sourced from Sellita. They receive the same updates as the older ETA movements did. COSC, upgrading the winding and of course the escapement.
I owned 3 42mm SO's and a 41 Navitimer. All ran pretty much 0 spd. So they are regulated extremely well. No complaints here.
My son's and a nephew enjoy them now and still running perfectly.
