Buying my first Rolex

Hi everybody I'm new on this and I'm trying to buy my first Rolex is a Datejust 16014 from 1979 serial 61.. But my concerns are that doesn't have any papers and reviewing some of other post and pictures I have some questions to ask you.
First in the clasp is missing the "REGISTRED" and "SWISS MADE" on the left and "STEEL INOX" and also I saw that in the dial next to the Swiss made the T's are missing it is normal for this one or is a fake.
I hope you guys can help me out and see if a can trust the seller.
