    It could be anything from a mark made during the manufacturing process, to a mark put there by some watchmaker in the past to keep all the Speedmasters he had apart at the same time sorted out by letter, so this was #3 of the lot...A, B, C...

    All you need is a letter from Omega and you hit the lottery :)

    Awesome Find!!
    No doubt this "C" dial was a component of a Speedmaster 145.012-67 presented to
    George Armstrong, Captain
    Toronto Maple Leafs, 1967 Stanley Cup Champions
