Breitling Top Time B01 Ford Thunderbird AB01766A1A1X1

The 1960s was a time of experimentation, fun, freedom, and energy. Whether it was cruising on a motorcycle or driving a sports car, life at full speed was the order of the day. Willy Breitling felt this change of pace and began designing an unconventional chronograph that would capture the spirit of the era. He named this model the Toptime. That vibrant tradition continues today as Breitling collaborates with some of the coolest brands in motorsport to create its Top Time designs. The Ford Thunderbird was first unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show in 1954. It was touted as a fun-to-drive convertible that made its presence felt with its luxurious design, solid construction, and dramatic tail fin. The Breitling Top Time B01 Ford Thunderbird features the colors and emblem of the classic sports car, as well as a racing calfskin strap, a tachymetric scale, and contrasting “squircle” (not quite square, not quite round) subdials that evoke the feel of vintage dashboard gauges. It comes with an incredible engine under the hood: the exceptional Breitling Manufacture Calibre 01.
