Icon6 Is this suspicious?

Hi guys, Im thinking of buying a datejust from 1984. But some of the details look a bit odd to me compared to others of the same watch from that year. For example this dial has roman numbers and there is no "T swiss T" or "T swiss made T" print. It just says "swiss made".
Shouldn't it have a T somewhere if it had tritium in it? The crown on the back of the bracelet also seems too worn in. Are these red flags? What do you think

Ps I cant post a link due to guidelines. I dont have enough posts yet
if you want to see pictures go to timetowatch .dk and find in datejust 16014

Red Flags for what?

It's a 40 year old watch and has probably been refinished a time or two, and likely had the dial changed post-2000. Typical for a decades old watch.

If it's a watch you like at a price you like, and the seller is reputable; a good DJ is a very popular choice.
