I recently had my 30 year old Seamaster serviced by Omega. While wearing it during a rain shower soon afterwards, I noticed moisture forming underneath the glass and returned it to the Omega agent.
He said that it was no longer water resistant and that the moisture was probably entering through the crown. He also advised that I even avoid water splashing on the watch, never mind submerging it.
Should this be covered by the Omega service guarantee? Is there any way of restoring the water resistance without replacing the original crown? Hope someone can shed some light on this...
