I don't think that that's the original bridge on it, but that shouldn't be a problem.

The factory can fix or replace the rosette on these and maybe refinish the top. If you can get it for the price on ebay, it might be a good purchase.

That is a replaced bridge and the rosette is pealing at the edges from shrinking. It is an Ovation bridge, I'd leave it alone but the rosette will probably need to be fixed.
