That is a rotor to a Breitling, which model I do not know though... It is mounted on the movement and swings around when you move your arm (e.g. walking) and tensions the mainspring. |

The OP mentions that the overall dimensions are 6'' across and 2'' high so definitely not a real rotor. I suspect a paper weight mock-up of a rotor. I've never seen one before. Pretty cool.

Pretty cool. That's what I was trying to subtly hint at (too subtly apparently). I'm guessing that it's a generic thing that just has different brands logos put on it as it's not accurate for a Breitling rotor. |

Any more pictures of that? Does the rotor come out of the case? Can it be mounted to a wall? It's pretty cool regardless. |

(compare with a breitling watch )
