How is it possible to be that exact?

We don't have a date for the construction of the fortress (beyond some time Domitian-Hadrian), or dates for the various garrison units, and we don't know which legion used this helmet. The 100-125 approximate date comes from Travis & Travis Roman Helmets, and appears to be largely on stylistic grounds alone.
