Haven't seen it before, but I think it is legit..

I wonder how many of these were produced and what military units had them.

I read somewhere that it's from the 80's but I believe this has a B57 so I don't think that's true.

It is legit and I think it's from late 80's - early 90's.

This is one of those models that causes confusion because there isn't much documented. I'm not familiar with the movements first hand, but there is disagreement as to whether it's a B50 movement with an unknown, possibly Miyota, base or a B57 with an ETA 955.412.

There isn't much documented about the B50 - I suspect because Breitling doesn't publicly acknowledge producing watches with non Swiss movements, although they certainly did for a short period.
