“Any chance this is a harmless phenomenon?”
There are volumes on this MB on the topic of humidity, sweating, leaking, humidity, call it what you will. There are as many perspectives on these topics which are as varied as the opinions of those who reply. But i’ll give you my perspective. This is NOT a harmless phenomenon! I live in a dry climate, so my perspective is based on my experience. The last time I experienced this problem, it was with my 30 year old Speedmaster Professional. I dried it out immediately, and installed a brand new, correct, genuine Omega Speedmaster crown. Some will say the problem is caused by a high percentage of moisture content in the air trapped in the watch. I don’t believe it!
Since it was (apparently) Omega that did the work, strongly suggest the watch goes back to Omega.
