    I believe that the "hole" is the customs stamp from Portugal at the time.
    Learned this from achim last week here.
    Cheers

    Yup, Portuguese import stamp. At least you know where it was delivered to!

    The use of "OM" appears to be intermittent according to Desmond, so in most cases you would have to look at the back to be sure. However, gold dial Constellations are usually fairly distinctive.
    I do not believe the watch that Ash (Ash never said the dial was gold) posted and you quote has a gold dial. I think it is just the effect of the color temperature of the photo lighting source.

    Its stunning and the rivet bracelet looks great, its just that the Grand Luxe stepped Piepan is that perfect storm of Omega's most dramatic and loved design elements.

    Like Ashley I just can't bring myself to get all hyped over it especially at the price they bring.

    Plus does not take returns and that bracelet is aftermarket.
