Lume defected

Hi all haven't posted for a while but recently I just noticed that my lume on the 44RG has some defect I think might be due to the humidity I've noticed that there's something wrong with the watch's crown and wanted to bring it to RSC however due to corona I couldn't and this happened. Anyone know what's up and can it be fixed ? Advice please

That's interesting. Out of curiosity, have you ever left the crown unscrewed for an extended period of time while it was on a winder or just sitting perhaps?

Obviously something that should be covered under warranty nonetheless.

Hi, Actually the crown is screwed all the time that's what really surprised me.

Do a condensation test.
Get the watch warm, then put an ice cube on the crystal. If there is moisture inside the watch, it will condense on the inside of the crystal. If you see condensation then you know what caused it.
