interestingly fraudulent.
As I have never really looked at a Hercules, the "professional look" of the listing would make me (and many others, I assume) sure this was authentic.

But a short look at the "real thing": http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... nal_5.html shows almost no similarities (date, dial layout, crown, back etc.).

the "AUTHENTIC BREITLING REF# GK2188" is also quite innovative.

+1 - "Dial design, subdials, hands and caseback are wrong. Reference # is incorrect for any Breitling."

ebay is tough to understand, trick, hard to prove fakes are removed immediately, others, clearly fraudulent, remain ?
