They claim its from the factory as a special order… looking at the rivet marks on the back it does sort of look like it never had arrowhead markers but only the letters… there’s a lot of pics included, what do you guys think?
The name on the dial is

Manoel Afonso de Melo Neto (born 20 April 1943 in Maceió) is a Brazilian lawyer, businessman and politician active in Alagoas

Son of José Afonso de Melo, former deputy, and Josefa Holanda de Melo. His father was the brother of Arnon de Melo. Bachelor of Legal and Social Sciences in 1962 at Federal University of alagos.

In 1966 he ordered an OMEGA REF. 14365 CONSTELLATION GRANDE LUXE PINK GOLD Omega with case No. 101801, Ref. 14365 SC. Made circa 1966
With a dial named after him.

he was a legislative officer in the Legislative Council until beginning his political career for the MDB, being elected councilor in Maceió in 1972 and deputy state in 1974 and 1978. In 1982, he was elected Federal Deputy for the PMDB, the party he joined after the end of bipartisanship in the João Figueiredo government.
This is the first and last omega to be made by genuine
Omega after the buyer's initials on the dial.
Why does the omega not follow the M located at 0 o'clock.
Because omega assumes that a new day starts after 0 hours. So the username starts at 1 o'clock is “M” and ends “O”at 12 o'clock

I’m seriously considering contacting Omega and asking them to do this for me if it means people online will be trying to learn about me as if I’m some great mystery 70 years from now like this lawyer

It won't work.
I've checked all combinations and although the letters all fit, they're not in a nice even "given name" across the top and "family name" across the bottom.

You could change your name by dee poll and ask them to price this up though.

Wow! Didn’t know you could do that back in the day.
It must’ve cost an arm and a leg.
