Recently noticed that the Aqua Terra Annual Calender retails in the UK for about £6000 yet the standard 8500 Aqua Terra retails for only £3500.

I know the Annual Calender displays the month as well as the date but is there any reason for the extra £2500?

I'd be interested to hear people's thoughts on the Annual Calender as it is a watch that does not appear to be commented on very often.

The extra complication for the months is difficult as it needs to skip dates in the shorter months. It saves you having to skip over those pesky 31s and even 30s. I am not sure if or how it does leap years.

Thanks for the reply Kelly's. In that case I reckon the AT 8500 offers much better value. Cheers.
