Technically, no one knows anything. At all. Because Watson explicitly admits, at the start of the story, that he's totally lying his ass off about some things due to the story's ~~highly illegal~~ sensitive nature.

But if you want to assume Watson only lied by omission, it is either before 1889 or after 1894 (because Watson seems to be living at Baker Street). It is also not very early, because Holmes mentions that he and Watson have lived together "for some years". The physical description of Watson provided is of a strongly-built man, which doesn't fit his just-returned-from-war description from 1881, when he was extremely frail and scrawny, yet would also seem to refer to someone who's no older than middle-aged (plus, he and Holmes sprint quite a long ways and scale a high wall at full speed), so it had to be several years before 1904, when the story was published and Holmes and Watson were around 50ish.

So it was probably in the mid-to-late 1880s, but possibly just after Holmes returned from the dead.
