I prefer the Grand Premier with the romans, the Premier is very small at less than 37mm. It was an unpopular model and hence short lived, largely because it was such a departure - especially being positioned in the Navitimer range. I like the look simply because it is different.

Just joined the forum and found this post. I have owned a Premier since 2000 when I came across one while on a business trip. I wanted something to replace my circa 1968 Gallet chrono and the Premier's simple design was very similar. The watch was on sale at the time for $1,200 and I bought it. Been very happy with it and have received many compliments on it. It's interesting that this design wasn't popular, but I guess it's too plain for a Navi.
