Can anyone tell me the years for serial numbers f g h I

lapince · 9 July 2015, 08:15 AM

Well I got a diver 2 weeks ago and it's an I series, so seems I is for 2015...

texex91 · 9 July 2015, 09:14 AM

Best I could find:

A Series - 1972 to 1975
B Series - 1976 to 1979
C Series - 1980 to 1986
D Series - 1987 to 1994
E Series - 1994 to 2000
F Series - 2001 to 2007
G Series - 2008 to 2010
H Series - 2011 To 2013/14
I Series - 2014 to Current

Manofsteelpt · 9 July 2015, 09:45 AM

Seems right to me Paul. The APs I've owned have had G, H and I serials and they match the years of purchase above. Best.

SMD · 9 July 2015, 10:32 AM

I would update the I serial to 2013/2014. I got my ceramic diver in 2013 and it was an "I" serial. H and I overlapped to a certain extent depending on the model.

Looks pretty accurate. I've hade F,G,H and I and dates match up. Can't speak to anything before that.

Bobby69 · 10 July 2015, 04:18 AM

I've got a G that was purchased new in 2011. They all seem to make sense... These would be production dates?

IS250C · 25 January 2016, 09:39 AM

I was looking at a ladies white ROO model 26048SK.ZZ.D010CA.01and it is a H series.
So it is at best a 2014 production, sitting at the show room for 2 years?

freshacejay · 20 February 2016, 06:59 PM

What does it mean if the serial number has no letter preceding it? Im talking about a RO two tone automatic, probably 36 or 37 mm. the number on the back is two digit and no letter... can find any other number on the case...

Townshend · 28 March 2017, 03:29 PM

J series started in 2016

jojo · 8 September 2018, 12:04 PM

The latest for this yea( September 18) should be K series.

jojo · 13 September 2018, 08:14 PM

A Series - 1972 to 1975
B Series - 1976 to 1979
C Series - 1980 to 1986

E Series - 1994 to 2000

Mine is a J bought in 2017 so you’re correct!

I had a J5XXXX from a 15202ST I bought July 2017.

Can confirm 15202st are in K series as of the last two weeks.

A_Torres · 6 February 2020, 07:53 PM

Hi guys,

I was looking for some advice, I just got my new AP 15450ST and I have noticed that the serial number starts with TWxxxxL which slightly differs from the nomenclature I've seen around.

It was bought from an authorised AP dealer but I will appreciate if someone could give me some insights of this difference

Thanks in advance,
Alex

I believe AP recently started doing random serial numbers (similar to Rolex) so it will no longer follow the sequence outlined here.

A_Torres · 6 February 2020, 11:12 PM

Excellent, thanks Chris!!

fullofboats · 6 February 2020, 11:21 PM

Think they went random sometime in 2H 2019. I have a piece purchased in Oct. that starts with GN
