Whisk vinegar, garlic and oregano in a large bowl; gradually stir in oil; stir in olives and peppers. Season with salt and pepper.
Cut off the top inch of the bread loaf; set top aside. Hollow out the bottom and top halves of the bread.
Spread some olive and pepper mixture over the bread bottom and the cut side of the bread top. Layer meats and cheeses in the bread bottom. Top with onions and arugula. Spread the remaining olive and pepper mixture on top of the sandwich. Carefully place on the bread top.
Serve immediately or wrap the sandwich tightly in plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator a day before serving.
