Why is it when I see a full set 90’s 3592 for example the warranty cards are hand written w the reference & serial vs actual print ? Wasn’t sure if these were legit like that from back in the day. Thanks.

that’s legit. I’ve had purchases as recent as 2017 (bought new by me from ADs) which have those numbers hand-written. Pre-typed cards are fairly recent.
To add to the likelihood of legitimacy the International Warranty card should ideally have a stamp for the name of the retailer that sold the watch. Unfortunately, though I’ve seen instances where “retailer” stamps can’t be genuine as they don’t correspond with the country in which the watch was sold, based on the four digit country code.
I bought two watches from ADs in Mar and Dec 2018 and both of the cards had the reference number and watch number hand written on the warranty cards, the Pictogram cards had them pre-printed.
