Clues:
Falck tubing sticker - is it Italian Bike?
Internal cable routing!

Almost full Shimano 105/golden arrow equipment.

Re:

Generally Falck tubing was used in Italy for lower grade frames. If you have Italian bottom bracket threads (36mm x 24 tpi probable for yours) you have a quantity produced frame which could have been branded with many names.

Thank you Keith. I already know this. I'll check threading, but it is probably 36x24 (Italian). I was looking a lot for this kind of internal cable routing in other bikes and Olmo bikes have similar type of it but in other places (over top tube, while mine have it in the side of top tube). Sorry, but I am totally crazy about that bike and I want to know its origins. :)
 
Thank you otherself! :)
I spent more than 20 hours to find similar "netting" in RB forums, but without success...
 
Sorry for being late to this, I kinda remember but not 100% sure the netting being on Diamant frames of that era and that brand using different tubing a lot other than Reynolds and Columbus plse dont ask me about Diamant itself as what I've written is def on thhe outer limits of my memory
 
I've come across a few refinished frames in fade/netting so paint might not be original. Sadly you might never work out who built it..

sany-

You may want to check Legnano and Bottechia. Legnano, especially, used Falck tubing extensively with that style of seatstay joint. It's a lovely frame. I hope you discover its origins.
