Icon20 Scrambled Serial Number?

Just purchased a 14060m from an AD. Serial number is 8Z53Fxxxx
How do you date this watch in the future, is this what is called a 'Random Serial'?

You won't be able to date the watch in the future. That's the point of having the random serial number.

Congrats on purchasing the best watch currently being manufactured by Rolex!
