Undated warranty cards

Hi all,
My friend just bought a Tag Heuer Monaco from Chrono 24 and the watch has an undated warranty card. Do this means that is something wrong with the watch? Do the undated warranty cards makes the watch more valuable?

I had an Oris Propilot. I think the original buyer got it grey and the card was undated. I don't think it matters much.
It might cause an issue when it comes time for Warranty work, god forbid

No, value is not impacted, although some folks do like blank cards, providing everything is genuine.

It is very likely one of the actual Grey Market watches that never went through an AD so never got the card marked. Blank cards say nothing about the watch.

Without the date on the card authorize service will not take the watch for the service or will be considered as a fake?

I guess that would depend on if its warranty work or standard service. The card is suppose to indicate warranty start date. If the watch is older, it likely doesn't matter. In todays time, papers do nothing to authenticate the watch as they can be fabricated as well.

Servicing a watch with dated papers, undated papers, or no papers at all should not matter.
