the director of the W+F wrote in a letter to the Kriegsmaterialverwaltung in October 1903, that during 1903 the W+F assemble 500 pistols (SN 3501 to 4000). Further he confirmed that he has received the drawings of a wide trigger in Mai 1903.

That could be evidence that the wide triggers came not before October 1903 and after around SN3500. On the other hand, it’s possible that triggers were changed afterwards by the W+F.

What I have learned during many years of collection, not everything which is unusual is not correct or a fake. Therefore your Pistol 1900, SN3185 with wide trigger can be absolutely all right. Even more, it’s an interesting gun because it’s unusual.
