Breitling Top Time

The Top Time was the chronograph Breitling built for people who were never going to fly a plane — launched in 1964, affordable, and styled with a freedom the brand's cockpit instruments never permitted. This Thunderball edition honours the example that appeared on screen in 1965, keeping the era's proportions and high-contrast dial architecture intact. What sits behind it is entirely contemporary: the in-house Manufacture Calibre 01, an automatic chronograph with column wheel and vertical clutch, certified as a chronometer by the COSC.
