Hey guys
Need your help once again. I have fallen in love with a Link WT5212 automatic. But it does not have any serialnumber or modelnumber on the back? The international warranty card comes with it, and the serialnumber is on the card! Is this normal? I thought all of Tag watches had model and serial on the back!
But like I have said before, I´m pretty new at this.😵‍💫
Hope someone can help me out, would hate to buy a fake 😡

Did you physically see the watch or buying online?
Sometimes sellers blur serial numbers to avoid fraudulent use of images.

It´s online. It is not blurred out. I have asked seller, and seller has written, that there is none on the back, and that it is normal.
Here is a link to the watch below:

Well, I don't think any seller would post a replica on Chrono24; the cost of an ad is higher than that of a fake watch 😀

For sure the serial number has been polished out: you can see that the caseback has been heavily polished.

Thanks guys. 😀
I think I will keep away from this one then. He must have heavily polished it, if he can polish away the serial number and modelnumber right?
Close to abuse 🙁
