Breitling Top Time B01 Racing Automatic – AB01771A1B1X1

The Breitling Top Time B01 Racing is a bold nod to the golden age of motorsport, reimagined for today’s enthusiast. Originally introduced in the spirited 1960s by Willy Breitling, this racing-inspired chronograph embodies the energy and freedom of that transformative era. Its modern-retro design pays homage to the original Top Time models with a sleek 38mm cushion-shaped stainless steel case, bold tachymeter scale, and distinctive “squircle” subdials that hint at life in the fast lane. At the center of the dial, you'll find the signature “surfboard” motif—an archival design inspired by vintage car dashboards.

Inside, the watch is powered by the in-house Breitling Manufacture Caliber 01, a COSC-certified chronometer offering approximately 70 hours of power reserve and precise 1/4-second chronograph timing. The self-winding mechanical movement beats at 28,800 vibrations per hour and is secured within a glareproof cambered sapphire crystal and screw-in caseback. Water resistant to 100 meters, it’s built for durability as much as style. Finished with a soft beige calfskin leather strap and a stainless steel tang buckle, the Top Time B01 Racing merges heritage and performance in one striking timepiece.
