Gucci Watch Serial Numbers
For such a simple check, this is often the one that helps people to spot a fake, so take your time when handling the watch. Check the serial number. Every authentic Gucci watch is sold with a certificate of authenticity. The certificate features a serial number, which you can check with Gucci if you are having any doubts. For example, serial numbers are engraved on the back of Gucci watches, while handbags feature a small leather tag stitched inside the cavity of the purse, with model and serial number information stamped in the material. Gucci - the name alone sends shivers down the spines of fashionistas. What Do Gucci Serial Numbers Mean? A Gucci serial number is a sequence of 10 to 13 figures, usually in two rows. The first row usually indicates the style code/number and the second line shows the supplier code. In a Gucci bag a serial number serves as a way of protection and insurance for costumers to make sure they have their original stylish. The back of your watch’s face should also have the “GUCCI” name. Look over the watch for its quality. A true Gucci watch will look expensive and should also feel heavy. Gucci watches come in either steel or gold, which makes them heavy. Also, the links in a genuine Gucci bracelet or band are not hollow, giving additional weight to the watch. Most authentic Gucci watches have the model number on the back. If you see nothing but a crest, or a crest and the Gucci name, the watch is likely fake. No authentic Gucci watches display just the crest and name without additional markings. Crests on replica Gucci's are typically larger than the crest on real watches.
Instructions for using our serial number look-up tables
This page contains INSTRUCTIONS for using the serial number look-up tables that are found on many of our watch company history pages. The example below uses information from the American Waltham Watch Company, but that is just an example. You should consult the serial number table for the specific brand of watch movement you are trying to date by selecting a company from the menu on the left.
Not all vintage watches can be dated using the serial number. Some American watch brands did not use a consistent series of serial numbers, but most of the big manufacturers did. Most vintage Swiss pocket watches did NOT have serial numbers and can't be dated by this method.
Can't find YOUR exact serial number in our lookup tables?
Many watch companies made hundreds of thousands of watches, and some companies made millions of watches! It would be impractical to list the individual serial numbers of EVERY watch made.. that would make some really long pages! Our serial number tables list RANGES of serial numbers. So to determine when your watch was manufactured, you will need to find where your serial number fits within the range of numbers.
Serial number look-up example:
Let's say you have a Waltham watch with serial number 21,607,210 as shown in the photo below. Note that we're using the serial number from the watch movement, not from the watch case. Looking at the table of Waltham serial numbers (see example below), you can see that number 20,900,000 was made in 1917 and 21,800,000 was made in 1918 (marked in red in the table below). Since your serial number falls between those two numbers, you know that your watch was made in 1917 or 1918.
Not sure which serial number to use?
You must use the serial number from the MOVEMENT of the watch.. the working part with the wheels and gears.. not the serial number from the watch case. Cases and watches were often made by different companies and each usually has its own serial number. You usually have to take the back off the watch case to see the movement serial number which may appear anywhere on the watch movement.
Use the movement serial number. Do NOT use the case serial number!
This is an example only. Your movement serial number may not be in exactly the same location as the one in the photo, but you are looking for the serial number that is on the watch mechanism itself.. not the serial number on the external case.
