In Response To: condensation in seamaster ()

You need to get that watch serviced SOON by somebody who has been profesionally trained in Omega watch repair. Since you're in Europe, Omega itself is probably the best choice, although georges z may have some more informed advice on particular repair services he knows. Bottom line, you got water in the watch somehow, and you need to have it serviced SOON to get it dried out and resealed. If you have children in the house, you should give them a stern lecture about unscrewing the parts on daddy's watch. There is NO need to uscrew the helium valve EVER even if you go skindiving, UNLESS you are diving in SAT conditions and staying deep (like 500 feet) for days at a time.
