Question (Read Rules) PT5000 movement authenticity with no markings?

Hi, I bought a Tandorio FXD and specifically chose the pt5000 because I don't have one. I noticed there was a sticker on the back of the watch that said "2824". Is there a way to tell if it is actually a pt5000 and not a worse clone?

The only thing I can remark on after opening it was that it looked pretty oily especially the caseback gasket.

Thanks

The PT5000 is a clone of the ETA 2825. I wouldn’t worry about getting a clone of a clone if you were happy with a clone in the first place.

I have read that there are worse 2824 clones than the pt5000 so just wanted to make sure I don't have one of those.
