At the risk of again being accused of being unhelpful, how can you not know whether this is real or not?

- A five digit serial number?
- Printed letters on the dial but script on the movement?
- A different serial number on the movement to the case?
- A Geneve dial in what is clearly supposed to be a pre 1952 watch?
- A dial that looks nothing like any dial Breitling ever used?

You're absolutely right...I am just a beginer...never said otherwise.
I am here to learn how not to be ripped off building my collection.
Thank you.

You said that you had bought Richter's book - a quick check of that would have told you all that you needed to know about this one in no time flat.
