As I understand it, the movement in a Seamaster Pro retails for about $100. Add the parts/labor to modify it to an 1120, say another $200. That's $300, or approximately 15% of the total retail cost comes from the movement on a COSC-certified watch.
Frankly, I'm not really interested in spending an additional $600 or so to get another COSC-certified movement, albeit one manufactured by Omega.
