I have doubts about the date of receipt of the secon hand bre. I'm about to buy
Can I find out the purchased time of the watch from its certificate code?
Product has been bought abroad so where shall I learn it from?

The only way to date the watch is a code between the 6 o'clock lugs - you have to remove the strap or bracelet.

The first 4 digits of that code are the week and year of manufacture - for example 2607 is week 26 of 2007 - or the end of June.

Be aware that it's not unusual for a watch to be made a year or more before it's sold as ADs often hold a fairly comprehensive stock.
