Introduced in the transformative 1960's, Willy Breitling's unconventional line of racing-inspired chronographs captures the era's freewheeling vibe. Today, the new Top Time collection channels that adrenaline-fueled energy, blending modern-retro design with cutting-edge performance. Fausto Coppi and Gino Bartali weren't just champions - they were symbols of sportsmanship. The rivals were Breitling ambassadors at a time when the brand was the official timekeeper for the sport's greatest races. Their love of cycling and deep respect for one another inspired millions in Italy and around the world. The Tip Time B01 Gino Bartali features a blue dial with yellow accents, inspired by his memorable jersey. The chronograph features Bartali's nickname on the tachymeter scale: " L'Intramontabile" (The Timeless), while his signature at six o'clock makes the connection even more personal. The 41mm Chronograph runs on Breitling's Manufacture Caliber 01, offering COSC-certified precision and a 70-hour power reserve. A transaparent caseback reveals the intricate movement, its outer ring engraved with "Gino Bartali Tribute" and "One of 750". A legend unforgettable in his time, a watch reimagined for ours, the Top Time B01 Bartali honours the resilience and friendships forged even in the fiercest competition.
