Ref.5402 B series

Hello everyone,

Just quick advice, I have been proposed a 5402 with B serial number in the early 1300. The watch has the AP on the 12 and not on the 6 like the A series. However I have seen advertised also later serials with still the AP on the 6.
This doesn't seem clear to me, in fact from what I have read the dials in stock after the A series was completed were used for early B series. Therefore either my watch or the ones advertised may have had a later dial change, can you confirm?

Hope is all Clear and thanks for your time

The C series was the year they transitioned from AP at 6 o’clock to AP at 12 o’clock. That was the series where they had both dial configurations. To find a Series B with an AP logo at 12 o’clock, I would presume it means it was dial replacement (potentially during a service).
