Breitling’s new Top Time classic car watch collection and its perfect pit stop

Breitling is launching its new Top Time classic car watch collection, inspired by the Ford Mustang and Thunderbird, Chevrolet Corvette and Shelby Cobra – all retro-modern detailing with nods to the muscle cars in question and driven by 21st-century tech. Now there’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in the vintage motoring world of ’50s and ’60s American classics at Breitling’s conceptual installation at its Café and Boutique located in Battersea Power Station. It’s the perfect pit stop – indulge yourself in its bar and lounge areas, play arcade games and enjoy many other treats.

Breitling’s conceptual installation at its Café and Boutique in Battersea Power Station boasts broad appeal for watch and car enthusiasts alike

Chief among these will be the appearance of a 1955 Thunderbird, a 1963 Corvette and a 1968 Mustang. The pop up will also host a speaker series within the café featuring influential figures from the classic car world, while watch enthusiasts can lap up the new collection and enjoy the Breitling universe through the prism of post-war America. Furnished with period fittings and trappings, you’ll swear you’ve stepped back in time into a mechanic’s workshop on an American highway.

The pop up is open from 27 May until 4 June at Breitling Café and Boutique, Unit G-013B, Ground Level, Turbine Hall B, Battersea Power Station SW11 8BU; breitling.com
