Reference number on the watch

Hi, is the reference number of the watch engraved on the case anywhere? For example would a 126710blro have that info on the case? Also would it be the full reference number or just the numbers?

Should be between the 12 o’clock lugs and visible when the bracelet is removed.

Should be on the case at the 12 o'clock position between the lugs. You will need to remove the bracelet/endlinks to see it. At the 6 o'clock position, the serial number is there.

I don’t think the serial numbers have been there since they started putting them on the rehaut.

Oh is that true? I didn't know that. Someone told me that they put them in both places. Thanks for the info.

Nope. And like I provided in post #2, the reference number is between the 12 o’clock lugs.
