Roff, is there a "Breitling Flying King", or is this a complete fabrication ?

Complete fabrication.

The case, bezel and bracelet design looks like a copy of an Audemars Piquet Royal Oak. Incidentally, in the dark early days of Breitling SA (early 1980s) before they developed their own distinctive designs, they did produce the Tabarly model that took some design cues from the Royal Oak, most notably the bracelet.


Reported.
