No one that I know of would remove a serial number. More likely a watch without a serial number is either a fake or it could be a real one that has a replacement "non-factory" case.
Have someone pull the back off and then inspect it closely. A real B-M watch will say so inside on the movement. Isabo is correct, that you can get almost any watch you want on the black market. The chinese are very good at copying almost anything...
