Post subject:  History of the TopTime guides?

Hi all,

I have found a couple of guides on the Internet detailing the history of the Navitimer over the years. I have also seen similar for the Cosmonaute and Chronomat and although I know there are believed to be some disputeable content in them they are still an interesting read with having examples of these watches. As some of you know I recently bought an early TopTime and did a similar search but I can't seem to find a similar guide for the history of the TopTime, is anyone aware of one, all I have been able to find so far is pretty much small discussion threads on specific watches on various forums? If so could you post the link or pm it?

Thanks
John

My 60s 2002 Venus 188 for reference, but would like to read a history of the many different TopTime produced during the 60s and 70s.

Fred is probably the only person in the world that can use his own examples to illustrate each model in the guide. :bow:

Can I ask where you purchased your top time from?

Please also include the brand of shirt in the photo captions so we can get "the look" just right. :P

Question is whether Fred will have enough different shirts for this article and I for one will be monitoring closely 8)

have at least half a dozen per fabric, typically, so that wouldn't be an issue, though I admit I own more watches than shirts.
