    I hope someone can help me please I'm trying to date an aqua terra the serial number starts with 916XXXXX.
    Also trying to source info about a certain special edition, it's a royal edition apparently and has a gold crown on the dial where the 12 hour baton would be. Could anyone please

    Yea the crown at 12 version is a Jordanian Royal family version from memory, I've seen 2-3 of them, the box carries the crown on it too.

    A 91.6M should be around 2010/2011

    I know the listing your talking about, all I can say is that I have seen the ladies version of that (also in Aqua Terra quartz) listed before and neither this one nor the ladies version appear to be "off" other than the royal markings. I doubt it ever made it to the Royal Family incidentally its more likely something they ordered by the hundred or thousand to give as gifts to staff or visiting guests or something, the actual royals would be wearing something with a lot more zeros on the price tag.

    I wasn't sure as haven't heard of a royal edition, figuredan actual royal family member would have an 18kt one at very least. So in your opinion it seems to be the real deal(not holding you to it but a second opinion is appreciated). Thanks again

    Its not an edition per se, its a normal reference just with a slight difference to it at the customer's request not unlike the military watches:
