Comments:

The 35mm case on this Reference 2003 Breitling is rose gold plated. The black reverse panda dial with silver sub registers is crisp and clear. The case shows some wear and scratches as you would expect for a nearly 50 year old watch. Having just been fully serviced he original signed crown winds smoothly. The chronograph functions well, with firm pushers. The timepiece is mated to a black leather Catterhalls strap which will fit up to a 7.5 inch wrist.

This is a true modern-day classic. The same model that was adapted as a Geiger counter for Sean Connery to wear as James Bond in “Thunderball” (1965)  Top Times are probably the most sought-after vintage watch models right now and this one even more so for its iconic film connection, reverse Panda Dial and clean lines.
