Dirty Tool
·Hi All - I have a FOIS that I purchased from a boutique in 2017. Over the years it has been worn very rarely on random weekends only. Unfortunately last weekend I noticed moisture under the glass and the hands have now discoloured. Researching this forum there have been quite a few instances of similar experiences, not just with FOIS but other watches the same 39mm case like the CK2998 and Pulsometer.
I feel this is a QA issue as this shouldn't happen and would like to send it back to Omega and request some form of goodwill gesture such a contribution towards a repair even though it is well out of its warranty period - is this an unreasonable expectation? In my ownership it has not been near water, I have not had it serviced however as mentioned it has been worn rarely.
In a cruel twist of fate the weekend before I noticed the moisture under the glass on the FOIS, my 3861 completely stopped working. Luckily this will be repaired under warranty but to have two speedmasters and both with QA problems is worrying. Thanks.,
