Breitling Top Time 810

BREITLING 810 Top Time Mk 1 - Reverse Panda - Venus 178 - Vintage 1960s

BREITLING Top Time 810 A beautiful example of the rarer Mk 1 reference 810 Top Time only made during 1965 - 1966 and only with reverse panda dial. An iconic vintage Breitling that is rare to find, especially with its original box. Case Stainless steel 38 mm diameter Signed snap on case back Signed Breitling crown Movement Venus 178 calibre mechanical manual winding Signed Breitling Watch Ltd Dial Breitling 'Cursive B' logo Black dial with small sub dials Cream patina tritium markers with slight Khaki hue Dial in excellent condition with very slight patina to sub dials under magnification. Strap/Bracelet Khaki green leather strap and steel pin buckle Complete with Original vintage 1960s period Breitling box Dating to circa 1966 Case number - 108xxxx In overall very good condition with wear and marks to case, case back and lugs. Minor marks to the plexi-glass. See photos. Still under-rated when compared to other classic Panda dial chronographs from the 1960s, though the 38mm case and overall design is far more aesthetically pleasing than its main competitor from that era. In recent years the re-introduction of the Top Time to Breitling's collection has cast a firm spot light on how desirable the originals really are... £4,950
