A week ago I got the following message from the Omega Prduction Development Division: "The only watch with a thermocompensated movement in Omega current collection is the Constellation Perpetual Calendar." So the Omegamatic Seamaster is certainly not a thermocompensated watch. I own one and it runs +3 to +4 seconds per month, not bad for a non-thermocompensated quartz watch. Its hands and markers still glow after placing in the darkness for hours, but those of my Speedmaster Triple-date do not. I think my Omegamatic uses tritium while my Speedmaster uses luminova. (My Omegamatic was produced in Oct,1997, serial no. is 557097XX, and my Speedmaster was produced in July,1999.)
