Lint on dial

Got my watch about a month ago. While cleaning my watch today with a microfiber cloth, I noticed that there’s a small lint on the 8:00 position. Is this something that has to go to a service center for? Or can this be handled at my local omega boutique? Thanks!

Not worth thinking about.

It might be returned to you with bigger issues.

Mention it at first service if you remember.

What is that at the six o’clock marker.

Awesome, thanks! So this wouldn’t affect the movement or anything like that right?

I checked the 6:00, it was outside the crystal

I would no worry about it, it’s not like you can see it with the naked eye. Any watch under magnification will show something that will drive you crazy if you let it.

That would bug me. Scratches don't but that would. I would ask the AD about it.

I did. They were more than accommodating and offered to send it to Omega. However, it may take a few weeks for my watch to come back. I think I'd wait until it's time for service...or at least until the next addition to my collection
