looks to be one of the 1990s "limited editions" Breitling produced with 18k cases and vintage movements - though we've also seen some creative reproductions of these, additional pics would help to ascertain this, but definitely not a vintage B.

I'll stick with my fake, noting how they are hiding the signature with the hands. Why????

I think it's a 1990s piece, there was certainly something very similar.
