Breitling Top Time - 2002
The Breitling Top Time ref. 2002-33 is a striking chronograph from the golden age of watch design, embodying the bold spirit of the 1960s. With its sleek case, bi-compax layout, and sporty proportions, it was designed for a younger, more dynamic audience.
The Top Time gained cinematic fame when a modified version appeared on Sean Connery’s wrist as James Bond in Thunderball (1965), equipped with a Geiger counter. Though that specific model was customized for the film, it cemented the Top Time’s place in pop culture and spy lore.
This reference is powered by the Valjoux 7733 — a robust and reliable hand-wound chronograph movement known for its precision and ease of maintenance.
The watch is fully functional and ready to wear (Amplitude: 311°, Precision: +8.4s/day), making it an ideal piece for everyday use or vintage collection rotation.
A true icon, the Top Time ref. 2002-33 combines timeless aesthetics, dependable mechanics, and a touch of cinematic history — making it a must-have for collectors and Bond fans alike.
