WC can also include specific purchase details like name of dealer, name of original owner or watch attributes like dial color, bracelet code or special or material, gems on dial or bezel, etc.
Current Owner - this is the person who currently has ownership, possession of the watch or someone who knows where the watch is, including registrar of watch, with identification required by reference and serial number.
A watch without a WC, the literal birth certificate of the watch is the very definition of an orphan - no way to confirm its identity, purchase details or date of birth--these details exist however they can never be confirmed without the WC.
The WC without its matching watch is a piece of paper or plastic card with numbers and purchase details with minimal value or significance. These plastic and paper WC tell the story of the watch and represent the heritage. They are invaluable and impossible to replace. WC are the 1 'proof-positive' identifier of the watch by its reference/ serial numbers and date of purchase.
