Hello, as an owner of a red dial racing model, i confirm the wooden box is the valid and the original box for this Racing models.

That’s a later box.
Remember boxes shipped differently then watches. That box is from after that Gen racing stopped production.

Me and a friend bought 2 racing models some months ago and both watches came with this box from Omega.
The outer carton boxes also have printed the order, the ref. number of the watches and the WL Date.

By the way both watches were models of 2019 & 2020 as well.

You may are right regarding the first models of 2012 - 2016

My wooden box looks and smells brand new. The white outer box has an omega sticker with date 04/2021 which matches up with the brown carboard outer-outer box which also has 04/2021 date and the reference number for the box appears to be 94100301.

Did you purchased yours from an AD?
The red dial looks great... was my 2nd choice.
I am not exactly a fan of blowing hundreds of $$$ on a strap, so have a look at this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001319664934.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.0.0.21ef1802PKIfWo I have one with yellow on the slow boat from China inbound.

Thanks!
I have already purchased the red one for my watch.
The watches were bought as new from an Omega local AD some moths ago. They were the last 2 available pieces in my country.

I really love the Racing model. It has the perfect size for my wrist and i feel fair and satisfied that i can use the lovely 19mm bracelet for my lovely FOIS.
