THE STORY​

Breitling's unconventional chronograph with a motoring twist. A distinctive celebration of design and freedom, the Breitling Top Time Classic Cars Squad pays homage to classic sports cars from the 1960s with a trio of racing chronographs. Drawing inspiration from the Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang and Shelby Cobra, the timepieces are a nod to the original 1960s Breitling Top Time models, which were designed for “young and active professionals”. Today’s modern-retro interpretations are perhaps even more youthful and free-spirited. The second-generation Chevrolet Corvette, distributed from 1963 to 1967, is the most sought-after version of this American legend. The “Sting Ray” took inspiration from a 1959 racing-focused prototype. Thanks to its slinky low-profile body, it looks stunning to this day. And with its performance both on the road and on the track, it has always haunted the dreams and sparked the imaginations of aficionados around the world. Featuring a 42-millimetre stainless-steel case matched to a black racing-themed calfskin leather strap, the Top Time Chevrolet Corvette features orange and yellow details on its red dial and the Chevrolet Corvette logo both on the dial and the caseback. The Top Time Chevrolet Corvette is powered by the Breitling Caliber 25, a COSC-certified chronometer precise up to 1/8th of a second.

The Best Chronograph Watch I've Ever Seen: Breitling Top Time​

The Bold Hairspring
Oct 19, 2023

This Breitling Top Time Chronograph is by far the best looking chronograph watch I've ever had the chance to put my hands on. The red dial is simply stunning and the Breitling B01 in-house movement deserves some attention as well. The Top Time collection draws inspiration from Automobile Culture in the 60s which explains the desing language. If you are looking for a very special chronograph and you have the funds this Breitling is a solid choice.
