Top Time

Vintage Top Time!
Beautiful Breitling Top Time from the 1960s. Inside beats the famous hand-wound Venus 178 caliber.
The case is in very good condition for its nearly 60 years. There is no corrosion. The lugs are fat, and the old polishing can still be seen in places.
The dial is in good condition. The luminous material was refinished once during a previous service and is therefore not a 100% match for the dial. Otherwise, the dial is in a beautifully aged condition.
The crown is signed with the curved Breitling B.
The Venus caliber was fully serviced in 2024 and is fully functional.
The watch comes with a 1-year warranty.
