Case and ref. seem Ok but Richter says dial should have roman numerals...and these are arabic.

Breitling engraved on case back and bridge...

Fake or real ?

Buy the seller first and personally I wouldn't trust anything from this seller. Dial is wrong, caseback engraving is wrong, hands are wrong, movement engraving is probably wrong and of course a modern logo buckle.

Franken.
Dial is very badly refinished, but there might be some authentic components.
Bad seller, bad restauration, ugly results.
