93250

When did Rolex go from stamping SEL to laser engraving them? I’m buying a bracelet and don’t have enough posts to post links to pictures... but the 93250 bracelet has AD 93250 stamped between the SEL. Would that be correct for s 2003 production date?

Would need to see (hi-res/close-up) pics. There are plenty of fake 93250s out there, and all of the ones I've seen have the "AD" date code. Proceed with caution.

from memory, the SEL (inner side) are laser etched. They are certainly not engravings like the "93150" on the first link of their predecessor bracelet.
