Now that's the farthest thing from the truth. My own wife doesn't love me some times
I don't get the impression you are here in the USA Gserghiou.
I'll take this opportunity to confirm you are correct, if your suit doesn't have the dots it's an older suit and to explain the differences between 2002-2005 Ocean Mimetic suits and the new generation 2006 Omer suits.
The material has been changed to a stretchier and softer Japanese neoprene compared to the one used before. The cut has been changed in the same old sizes 2-6 (2 XSM,3 SM, 4M, 5 L, 6 XL) and some new cuts have been added.

Omer introduced a 3 Long, 4 Long, and 5 Long now available to make the sizes more custom, especially for tall lanky people. The beavertail was lengthened 2cm too so it's not as tight.
Since the new material is also stretchier the cut was changed to a more custom fit to hug the body better. Not only is this material lighter and stretchier, it's also warmer. The glued dots are just one small external change to reinforce the stitching where its tied together at the seams.
All these changes, as well as the addition of the Green Mimetic suit which is a beautiful new camouflage, were done to offer a more customized size range and custom fit since a lot of custom suit manufacturers also have just work with a bigger run of sizes rather than standard size suits. This way, thanks to the long size, guys like me don't have to look like they are wearing high waters anymore
In Italy they (most companies) close for a month of government holidays typically the entire month of August.
