Hey guys - clearly new here and have been researching to find out if my Breitling is real or not. Based on past discussions, you guys know your stuff and can tell off the bat.

So, is the one I have real or fake? Appreciate the help.

It's a very bad fake.

Gah, figured. Thanks for the help.

Being a newbie, what gives it away?

Everything.

It's supposed to have a chronograph but the subdials are for a calendar, there's no date window, the hands look cheap and nasty (because they are), the sliderule is wrong, the design grabs different bits of multiple different models, the model number is wrong, etc.
