Hi guys, I'm new in the forum
I can't find a movement like this, looks like a venus to me but the bridge is strange and the dial and hand seems from a different period.

What do you think about it?

thank you everybody!

Definitely not a Breitling - an amateur attempt to modify caseback and bridge, but at least the faker was smart enough that to know that they didn't have the skills to try and fake the dial logo!

Don't immediately recognise it and don't have Bestfit to hand right now.

The movement is a Venus 175 single pusher. Pretty bad fake!
