It just suggests you're looking for a brown Bentley Motors on a Speed bracelet with a serial number. No warranty information provided. What you want is a photo of the paperwork with matching serials, and look at the date of the certificate and the dealer stamp/punctuation.

No warranty book = no warranty. Simple as that. Of course, the warranty book also has to have a serial number that matches the serial number on the back of the watch.

The warranty will have the serial number written on it. That need to match the serial number on the watch. Also the dealer stamp/sign need to match the punched holes (dealer code) on the warranty booklet.

No match means no warranty, just as if there's no warranty at all.

But, and that's a big but, I would never ever buy a watch with a mismatched warranty. Depending on the watch I might consider buying without the warranty booklet, but never with the wrong booklet. That would just imply that something is fishy and the seller is trying to hide it - hoping the buyer won't notice.
