Sorry for the poor image quality. The lens on my phone's camera is scratched.

My father-in-law was given this watch by his sister after her husband died. It came with Breitling brochures from the person from whom her husband had purchased the watch. The brochures were from a reputable dealer, but this watch did not match any models in them. Nor can I find any similar Breitlings online.

Thanks!

Are you sure? That's what I think, as well, but I need to be absolutely sure. Thanks!

Positive, it doesn't resemble any real breitling models. Others will chime in as well.....

Thank you very much. I really appreciate the input. I suspected that was the case after scrolling through hundreds of Breitling images and not finding any that were similar.

I thought it was either the rarest Breitling ever ( :roll: ), or a fake.

Even the bracelet has no resemblance to any bracelet ever offered by Brietling.

Thanks guys! My father in law will be very disappointed, but luckily he didn't pay anything for it.
