Vintage Constellation condensation probs

Hi,

My dad has got a 1976 Constellation Omega.

He had it serviced here at Omega House, UK, about 2 months ago. They had to send it to a separate 'old' watches department in Essex, to have the second hand refitted as well as a few other bits and pieces.

Anyway, it came back looking brand new. Brilliant job done, looks great. However, when my dad took it outside once, when it was raining, the watch started to get a small cloud of moisture between the face and the glass/sapphire.

They are going to fix it, Omega were very apologetic etc, but is it ok to swim with it on, when it comes back? It failed the servicing Quality&Assurance twice before I got it back last time..

Cheers,

Alex
