Welcome to TRF ... But I do not understand what you are asking? Looks to me like you posted the model number and the serial number

If you want to check if the paperwork corresponds to the watch, the model number and serial numbers are behind the lugs (in one side the model, in the other side the serial number; you would need to remove the bracelet).

Hey, we don't really know what you are asking.

(T serials were released in ~1995 if that is what you mean)

The serial number is between the lugs at the 6 o'clock position. You can search for a listing of Rolex serial numbers on the interwebs. As was just mentioned, Txxx,xxx numbers indicate 1995.

No.

Anyone can engrave a (Fake) number on a watch.

Why did you buy it if you suspect the seller sells fakes? Take it to a RSC or watchmaker who can look at the movement and the watch in general.

Next time, research the seller before you buy.

OK.

Then take it to a RSC or indie watchmaker. As mentioned in another thread, ADs don't care much to "authenticate."

Your watch may be mostly genuine, but have some aftermarket parts.

No lists. You need to get the watch looked at by some one who knows what they are looking at inside and out.
