I noticed (a little too late -after coming out of the pool) that the crown on my avenger was open and now the inside of the face (bottom of the glass) is all foggy (condensation) any thing i can do do get rid of it without having to go to a repair place? watch is still working fine, going to try to just let it sit with the crown open and hope that it can breathe and go away from that if not it opening up the face and cleaning it an option?

Service Center immediately. There are no intermediate measures. Water is in the movement. Not good. The sooner it is serviced the better.

+1 and any more delay may cause more damage as the moisture/water reaches further into the movement which will cause more parts to be damaged. As SM states off to the service center soon as you can. Good luck with it.

As stated.

Time is the biggest issue now - the longer it takes to get it addressed the worse the damage will be.

Unless you're prepared to replace the whole movement, don't let it sit. Water is the worst enemy of the movement.
