This article of Fratellowatches is quite instructive about the way the production date is determined: Either the day of assembly or, in case they have insufficient information, the day of shipment.
But the day Omega got paid from their dealers for a specific watch? Why would they even keep track of that?

It's defiantly not right. There is tons of blank paperwork readily available

Why would they show a wrong date then? Just get another blank paper and fix it.

I think the plastic box is too early for a 105.003-63.
Should be a red inner in a whiter outer box.

How can the archive know that the dial will age into soleil?
Clearly added afterwards and quite disappointing to have extract of archive morph into a certification process.

The blue soleil isn’t result of aging 😀 those dials were produced blue soleil, they have never been black. Just to avoid confusion on that 😉

Oh thanks. I stand corrected.
