It won't have 'Mexico' stamped on either chainstay because Colnago didn't stamp that word on the stays, ever. They
did use a decal which denoted either Super or Mexico, but never a stamping. The stamping has always been simply 'Colnago' and is stamped on both chainstays. The location changed when it was realized the last two letters were obscured by the large chainring. My understanding is that the stampings were moved a bit further aft on the chainstays on subsequent models (like the Master) to correct this aesthetic faux pas.
