Buffet Crampon with no makers' stamp?

Can anyone help identify this clarinet- I have just bought from a friend- in a Buffet Crampon case, the lower joint has a stamped serial number 239987
but there are no logo stamps on the upper joint or bell, they are plain black hard plastic,with no metal ring around the bottom of the bell. The serial number does indeed fall into the category of manufacture around 1983 according to the listed serial numbers, but I have never seen a Buffet Crampon with no maker's marks before, so was wondering if it is genuine. Maybe it is old enough not to have these or some clarinets were produced without the now familiar logo stamps? It plays well and I am pleased with the tone, only a couple of pads damaged, but wonder if I could ever sell it on in future without the Buffet Crampon makers' mark, only a serial number on one piece?
Many thanks
Jan
