Newley serviced zenith inside fogged up.
I just got my zenith el primero services in LVMH NJ. I was at the ice rink this morning and the watch fogged up. Is this normal? My other watches I have never noticed fog up like this.

My advice, take the watch back where it was serviced. No, this is not normal. There is condensation inside the case ( at least the crystal) Assuming water resistance on the piece is over 100 meters , this is not good. Any water resistance level this would not be good
What @TimeJunkie said. Take that thing back. Condensation should not be inside the case.
Looks like I will have to call them and send it back to NJ.
Oh yeah, I'm sure you were flipping out, I know i would have lost my mind.
Unfortunately, It has to go right back and fast.
I would also have lost my mind, absolutely not acceptable. Like others have said, that means moisture is in the case. Should have been tested for after re-assembly and pressure testing.
I have sent stuff for service with LVMH here and they’re usually great with any issues. Hopefully they can fix this quickly and not give you a hard time.
Very foggy, this just from the car AC blowing at my hands.
What the others said. That's water vapor in your Zenith, mate. Somebody napped during servicing your watch.
I have a similar, though not as severe, issue with a Raketa I bought off ebay. I’m in a band and was performing on stage. At the end of the set I noticed condensation inside the crystal from my body heat. Haven’t had it serviced yet, but I cant imagine it’s a good thing. Even if just a little bit.
