Since the earliest days of the automobile and motorsports have been part of Breitling’s story, bringing back the ultimate racing chronograph in a nod to its boldest 1960s designs. Three limited-edition Top Time chronographs built for racing enthusiasts are introduced: two dedicated to the adventure of rally and one created in partnership with Martini Racing.

Striking the perfect balance between heritage proportions and modern performance, each watch features a sleek 38 mm cushion case, squircle subdials and the unmistakable dashboard dial, while a special “One of 750” engraving adorns the caseback. Each of the 750-piece limited watches is driven by Breitling’s flagship Manufacture Caliber 01, a COSC-certified chronometer built for precision under pressure, featuring a 70-hour power reserve and easy-to-operate mushroom pushers, designed for quick, instinctive timing.

To create the Top Time Martini Racing, Breitling and Martini Racing collaborate for the first time – highlighting their shared passion for performance. This 750-piece limited-edition is engraved with “One of 750” and “Martini Racing” on the caseback, while its dial is dominated by Martini Racing’s signature blue, light blue and red stripes. With a case similar to that of its Top Time Racing counterparts comes a perforated dark blue leather racing strap.
