BLAST FROM THE PAST

-

James Bond clearly has a soft spot for Omega and Rolex watches, but he has been known to sport a handful of other unique outliers such as the Breitling Top Time that appeared on the wrist of Sean Connery in

The star power, friendly price and assortment of styles made the Top Time Breitling’s lure for young men in the 1960s. Well it’s back — in just one style this time — to win new hearts. There’s a lot for the retro-inclined to love here: the vintage Zorro dial, the red hands, the rarely seen decimal scale and a nubuck leather strap all win points for nostalgic appeal. It is modernly sized at 41mm and runs on the chronomete­r-certified Caliber 23. The limited-edition (2,000 pieces) will be sold exclusivel­y online.
