I might know a little more, but not a lot of knowledge is required for this one, it is a typical, low grade fake, not a replica, because then it would resemble an authentic Breitling. jfake turbillion, fake moonphase, wrong dial, subdials, bezel - everything is wrong here & quite worthless.

:welcome: and as Fred has said, it's a bad fake with a faux tourbillon.

After you watch this forum for awhile and look at many Breitlings the obvious fakes are easy to spot. The real good fakes can really fool you that is why you need the experts on this forum to evaluate the watch.
