I'm not an expert but I don't think that's a Breitling. It could be a different brand that has wings in their logo.

Im a Breitling fan ,and that is no Breitling. That looks like the biggest knockoff company of every great watchmaker. That would be INVICTA.

It's actually a Poljot, a Russian watch maker and that's really not a knock off of anything.
Good solid watch at a decent price.

The first watch worn in space was a Poljot and Gagarin wore one on man's first flight into space.

The one in your pic is right under 300 bucks and it has a 24 hour dial, which can take a while to get used to.

This is the Poljot Shturmanskie (Navigator) that Gagarin wore on his flight in 1961. It was not specially commissioned, just the standard issue watch for military pilots.

They have been around since 1931 and they have LOTS of history behind them.

interesting looking watch. not bad, if it's not too expensive, would be a good looking 'beater' watch for sure.
