Just ordered myself a Premier 40 for Xmas

I walked out of a new-to-me Rolex boutique, and there was a Breitling store, so I said, why not and walked in. Surprised myself that I like the Premier 40. The 42 I just can't wear, but the 40 is perfect. Would be more perfect with date and automatic, but it is what it is. Anyway, I didn't want to pay retail. So searched and found most selling for $6k online new instead of $9k. But then one place from Brooklyn is selling for $4k new! So I had to give it a try. Let's see how it goes. Let's see if this was a mistake or if I got myself a bargain.

Any thoughts of this watch?

That´s the 40mm Premier I'm considering too! Please do share photos and your experience once it has arrived.

I tried on both the 40mm and the 42mm. I agree that a 40mm with automatic and a date complicaton would be ideal for my wrist size. I own a SOHii and at 42mm and over 50mm lug to lug its about as large as I can wear.

My favourite has got to be the Datora, but still dreaming of them releasing this in wearable dimensions!
