I promise, last question for the night!

I recently aquired an exceptionally original late '60's Peugeot PX-10 (yes, another PX-10 in my stable!). It has Normandy high flange hubs that are identical to Luxe Competitions (thicker flange area where the spoke holes are, curved inward flanges, etc) except there is no gold or red label and "NORMANDY" is stamped off center fom the middle of the hub and directly in the center is an oil hole covered by a little black clip (just like a Capmagnolo NR). Has anyone seen these before? Are they an early version of the Luxe Competition? Any comments appreciated.

Thanks once more,

Eric Elman
