I am Greek and I must say that we do not eat such a salad in Greece, neither is served in restaurants, which serve traditional Greek food. I have the following remarks:

1) If you preserve tomatoes in the fridge after cutting them they will lose their scent. Tomato should be served fresh.
2) The same happens with oregano, which should be poured on top of the salad fresh.
3) Balsamic vinegar has nothing to do with Greeks and greek tomato salad.

The only Greek Salad I know that is marinated and preserved in the fridge, is the "Politiki Salata", Salad from Constantinopolis, widely served in north Greece and Thessaloniki. You can find this recipe in this link: http://www.greek-recipe.com/salad-from-constantinopolis/

I do not doubt that this could be a nice salad, although I expressed my concerns especially about preserving cut tomatoes in the fridge but definitely is not a Greek Salad.
