My Bach strad does not have any markings or engravings on the bell.
Are there some Bachs that were not stamped or engraved?

Fake ones from China, sometimes. However, they usually try, at least.

I'm not aware of legit Strads in which this is the case.

Pictures (which you have to host elsewhere publicly and link to) are always helpful.

Did you purchase the horn 'new' from an authorized Bach dealer?

If the horn was bought 'used', then there's always the possibility of the bell being a replacement.

Are there any signs of 'solder work' having been done at the locations of the braces on the bell.

Is the appearance of the bell identical to the body of the instrument?
