NOTES: According to the Omega Museum, the present watch was manufactured October 30, 1978 and delivered to Colombia.
The watch came from the original owner in the Dominican Republic who included a letter of provenance. In 1978, the president of the Dominican Republic tasked him as chief of the national police to offer these watches to his generals and offered him this one as a gift for doing so.
Although the Omega archives indicate delivery to Colombia, this was likely a hub before landing to Dominican Republic.
