The 2016 which is the successor has the blue second hand plus the dark rhodium dial. I owned the first two series and my favorite is the second series. You can get the first two series for under 7k. The third series is way more expensive for the Rolex clasp.
I am guessing you meant "glide lock" not "guide-lock" and "rehaut" instead of "renault" there? If you had a renault in the dial, you would have big problems, lol...

Anyway, just to clarify a couple points:

1.) There are plenty of Z-serial (2006-ish) 16622s out there with engraved rehauts.
2.) There were no glide-lock clasps used on any 16622 (the updated clasp first appeared on the updated 116622).
