Fine watches will bear individual serial numbers, as will their internal movements, which may or may not match. Many watch companies focus their efforts on the external aesthetics of the watch case, bracelet and dial design, while purchasing the watch movements from another firm entirely, notably the movement designer ETA. Contacting the manufacturer can confirm whether the movement serial number matches the case serial number, which model these corresponded to, and the year of manufacture.

Most manufacturers know that the resale market and demand for vintage timepieces is an important factor in their ability to command high prices for their products, and will have a method for researching this information, usually without charge, although some will require that it be sent to them.

It is also worth noting that counterfeit watches of a given type will usually all have the same serial number (as individually numbering them adds to the production costs, so they are simply cast or pressed into the molds). A fine watch company will usually not return a fake submitted for service or verification.

There are also many websites dedicated to celebrating different makes of fine timepieces. Many have resources to match serial numbers to year of manufacture or model. These will be user-compiled, as so won't be absolutely exhaustive, but will get you in the ballpark.

How do you identify a fake Cartier watch?

To identify a fake Cartier watch, examine the craftsmanship and materials; genuine Cartier watches are known for their high-quality construction and precise details. Check the engraving on the case back and the logo; authentic models have crisp, clear engravings, while fakes often have poor quality markings. Additionally, look for the weight of the watch; genuine Cartier pieces are usually heavier due to the quality of materials used. Finally, verify the serial number with Cartier's official records if possible.
