## Interpretation rules

- A matching serial, reference, date code, stamp, receipt or detail is not standalone proof of authenticity.
- “Unresolved” means evidence is missing or ambiguous; it does not mean counterfeit.
- Compare only within a relevant model, reference, size, material and period.
- Current manufacturer pages provide current context, not complete historical specifications.
- High-value decisions may require qualified physical inspection.
