Have a Look at this Bond GMT Picture... *LINK*
In Response To: Maybe it isn't the quartz... ()

courtesy of the fellow on watchuseek who just bought one. If Omega simply puts the red "Seamaster" logo where it is on the GMT (at the top), they can replace the "GMT" red logo on the bottom with the 300m/1000ft designation. That would give three lines of text at the bottom:
CO-AXIAL
CHRONOMETER
300m/1000ft

The model shown in the link Steve gave us has to be the quartz version, since the date window is in the wrong place for the automatic and the dial is devoid of "Co-Axial" or "Chronometer" (words which would undoubtedly be on the auto). I agree there will be a lot of writing on the auto's dial.
