That doesn't necessarily mean it is legitimate, or even the one for sale on the internet is. Andrew Taylor's information is excellent to consider.

Serial numbers can be just as fake as the items themselves. Only a qualified jeweler or watchmaker can validate your question and then only if you present the item for inspection. Many people buy these items online or in non-certified auction settings and get a "great deal" on them. Most find out they have fakes. Real quality items aren't just given away 99.9 percent of the time. There are many out there just looking to scam the unwary buyer who thinks they are getting something on the cheap. You may have a real one, but no one can tell you that online via text or even with a photo. Only the real deal with a professional who knows the product can validate its authenticity.

Sorry Marivic Claves,

There is ABSOLUTELY no way to tell if a watch is "real"
from the number on it... You should take it to a dealer
to get it properly authenticated.

(if some-one went to all the trouble to replicate a watch.. why would they not replicate a good number?)

Hope this helps!

Bobo, contact Gucci. Check the attached links,instruction and guides, Good luck
