Red Silverstone Crystal

Question for the group. Picked up a Red Silverstone today in excellent shape at a good price. Not sure if it fits in with my Siffert, Diver 100 and 1133B-sort of the odd man out but I do love it. One question for the group-the INSIDE of the crystal looks a tiny bit dirty-almost like someone opened the watch, smoked a cigar and closed again. Can only see the fogginess if you turn just so in the sunlight. Does not look like a moisture issue. Happy the way it is but the dial is super clean and i want it to shine bright. Is this the type of thing that can be cleaned by a watchmaker if opened (out of my comfort zone)? Better to just replace gasket and crystal? Hard to get photo but I have included the ebay link shots. (ended up closing auction and doing a face to face-always better!) Thanks all. Jamey
