Sea-Dweller Tritium Patina Question
Hello. I am on the verge of purchasing a beautiful Sea-Dweller circa 1995 (16600 Tritium Dial). I'm hoping that some folks here can weigh on on some dark spots that have developed at some point on the 11 and 4 o'clock markers - photos below. Are these dark spots the beginning of the normal patina development/aging process or something potentially more sinister? Thanks in advance!

I’m just worried that it was exposed to moisture at some point. Any advice would be appreciated.
