Looks like lubricant leakage

Since the blotches are exactly around the pinions and also from the edge of the dial, I suspect this may be the lubricant leaking. Even that is surprising since these are synthetic lubes that stand all rigors of variation in temperature within a given range.
All watches need to be worn to ensure that there is less chance of coagulation of lubes in any case.
I am a trifle surprised that you have worn the watch only 5 times in 3 years and have held yourself back from enjoying the watch at all!!
Please do not make them safe queens.
