Post subject:  Does anybody recognise this model?

Hi all. I was reading the paper online just now, and spotted this picture of Prince Harry and Usain Bolt at the Commonwealth Games.
Harry is clearly rocking a Breitling, and I believe it to be an Aerospace Advantage (like my own), but can't make out the number 3 and number 9 numerals on the dial.

Is this an Aerospace Advantage, and is it possibly a limited edition version related to his Apache flying days?

I attended Cosford Airshow last year (wearing my Aerospace), and just as the Apache display commenced, the commentator announced that it was actually Prince Harry in the copilot/gunner seat! It was a nice little surprise for the crowd, and even nicer for me to think he was hooning around up there with the same watch I was wearing.

Cheers
Colin

It does indeed appear to be an Avantage (not A-D-vantage), and you can see it is a special squadron edition in this thread below - ignoring the drivel being discussed.
You can see RAF wings @ 3 and a squadron crest @ 9.

Oh dear, didn't even notice the typo.

Great, thanks for the link!
