    Hello everyone, I was wondering if it is common practice to write the reference/serial numbers on the warranty card. Most of the pictures I have found online have the numbers printed as opposed to written. Also while I'm at it, an extremely minor question. Is it normal for the hologram on a warranty card to be slightly off center? Also what is the significance of the 2011? I've attached pictures for reference.

    Handwritten is normal.

    I dug mine out from the same era, and the hologram is not perfectly centered, but a little better then yours. I would not be concerned.

    The 2011 is the country code for where the watch is intended to be sold. 2011 is USA I think.

    I think this is common practice. Nothing fishy

    Not a problem. I have two new Omega watches and both have hand printed information from an Omega AD.

    Thanks, Jim; this answers my never-asked question about the warranty booklet for my TV dial Constellation.
