That was observant! I completely missed that, and it explains everything. Thank you! That's great! Admittedly, there's a big difference between 4 years and, in my case, 7.5 years to be more precise — but still. Also, I was early in using my stereo microscope during oiling and extremely careful not to over-oil. I actually think — even if it sounds unlikely — that I tend to under-oil. -

I use brake cleaner for cleaning. And once dried rinse in IPA works ok for me. Five litres of break3 cleaner, readily available is around £15 got to keep it air tight though. -
Bad news: Longines doesn't provide this service free of charge any longer. I have to ask for an extract from the archives or a certificate of authenticity, but I'm afraid it's not worth the cost for this watch. Too bad 🥴 -
Tool for removing or pressing the bezel? Most likely you have to remove the bezel (with a knife) before removing old crystal or inserting a new one. You can press the bezel with the crystal press if you have a suitable die with straight walls or otherwise a die that has enough clearance that it doesn't touch the crystal when pressing the bezel. -
