15202 engravings

Good Morning everyone,
Has AP stopped engraving the caseback number on this watch?
I have seen a couple of examples up for sale that look legit both "j" one with a number engraved in the back and the other with just the Royal Oak writing.
Do you guys know why?
Thanks

I don't think there have been any changes. My J series has both a J serial number as well as a model production number. Just like they have in the past.

Did you see these on line or in person? If on line sellers will blur the numbers

A couple weeks ago I was at the NYC boutique I was looking at the yellow diver and also did not see any case number, only had the watch number. I asked but her reaction told me it's her first time seeing it too.
