History of the Top Time

Breitling introduced the Top Time in 1964 as a chronograph for a young generation that saw watches as part of their style. The dials were colourful and graphic, and collectors today call one well-known pattern with contrasting sub-dials Zorro. In 1965 James Bond wore a modified Top Time in the film Thunderball. Since 2020 the line has been back with new models.

Top Time B01

The Top Time B01 is a chronograph with a 41 mm stainless steel case. Inside works the in-house calibre B01 with column wheel, around 70 hours of power reserve and COSC certification. The watch is water-resistant to 100 metres. Most models have a tachymeter scale for reading speeds over a timed distance.

Special editions for cars, motorcycles and cycling

The Classic Cars models take up the colours of famous sports cars such as the Ford Mustang, Shelby Cobra, Chevrolet Corvette and Ford Thunderbird. For motorcycle fans there are the editions with Triumph and Deus Ex Machina. The cycling editions are dedicated to the Italian racers Gino Bartali and Fausto Coppi. In addition there are the Racing models with dials in the style of historic racing chronographs.

Top Time B31

The Top Time B31 is not a chronograph but an automatic watch with date. Its stainless steel case measures 38 mm, and the in-house calibre B31 offers around 78 hours of power reserve. It is water-resistant to 100 metres and is the more understated choice for anyone who wants to wear the Top Time style without a stopwatch function.

Top Time or Navitimer

The Breitling Navitimer is Breitling's pilot's chronograph with slide rule bezel and many scales on the dial. The Top Time is simpler, slimmer and, thanks to its colours, more playful. If you are looking for an everyday chronograph with in-house movement and retro character, the Top Time B01 is a good choice.
