Breitling Top Time Watches at The 1916 Company

Originally launched in the 1960s, the Breitling Top Time was designed for young professionals with an eye for sporty design, pop-art colors, and technical performance. Today, the modern Top Time lineup revives that same spirit with bold chronograph layouts, retro racing inspiration, and the precision of Breitling's in-house B01 caliber. The Top Time is one of the brand's most playful collections — a contrast to the tool-watch DNA of the Navitimer or Superocean — and a standout for enthusiasts who love heritage-infused style and motorsport connections.

Explore the Breitling Top Time Collection

The Breitling Top Time is a chronograph built for vintage racing fans, collectors, and style-conscious wearers. First introduced in the 1960s and reimagined for today, the Top Time features bright color palettes, cushion or round case profiles, and dynamic dial designs inspired by classic motorcycles, sports cars, and iconic mid-century energy.

Powered by the COSC-certified Breitling B01 chronograph movement in many models, the Top Time offers flyback functionality, robust performance, and a 70-hour power reserve in a slim and wearable case. The line continues to expand through motorsport partnerships and collector editions, making it one of Breitling's most distinctive offerings.

Top Time B01 Bartali (Blue Dial)

Part of Breitling's partnership with vintage cycling culture, the Top Time B01 Bartali features a blue dial with silver subdials, red accents, and tachymeter scale — a tribute to Italian racing icon Gino Bartali. This in-house B01 model is equal parts chronograph and conversation starter.

Top Time B01 Coppi (Turquoise Dial)

The Top Time B01 Coppi celebrates cycling legend Fausto Coppi with a striking turquoise dial, vintage racing scales, and hand-applied markers. Under the hood, the in-house B01 movement ensures mechanical precision with modern chronograph performance.

Top Time B01 Martini Racing

The Top Time B01 Martini Racing combines Breitling chronograph design with one of motorsport's most legendary liveries. The red, blue, and silver dial channels pure rally nostalgia, while the B01 movement delivers high-precision timing.

Top Time B31

The Top Time B31 offers a cleaner aesthetic with a white dial, three-register layout, and refined case design. A versatile entry in the Top Time family, it's a great option for those who want vintage racing influence in a modern everyday chronograph.

Other special editions — including Top Time collaborations with Triumph Motorcycles and classic car makers — highlight the collection's creative range and its appeal to lifestyle- and motorsport-minded collectors.
