The reason I dated it when I did was 2-fold. Firstly that variant is an early one and I haven't seen them from beyond 1998 or so and secondly yours obviously has a tritium dial (see how the dial plots have faded slightly darker than the hands, normal for a tritium SMP), Omega transitioned over to tritium in 1997 so yours must be earlier. The very first year of production 1993-4 used the earlier movement 1109 from memory but then on they used 1120 so yours could well be a 1995/6. Hence my estimation of age.
I know that it seems odd that yours seemingly has a later serial but at various times Omega serials, which are really movement serials, can get a bit out of sync. I have several 60m pieces with papers over several years. I think maybe they make a batch of movements and generate the serials that way then use them over a period of years. Online lists of serial numbers by year aren't always a reliable way to date Omegas like this exactly. There are often big jumps in serial ranges. 60-61m jumps quickly to 80m in the early 2000s with nothing in between. I have a tritium dial auto with 1997 papers (poss made earlier) with a 60m serial and a quartz which was made in 1998 (confirmed by Omega) with 55m serial. As I say, serials are not not an easy guide.
