Hi
Was wondering if someone could help me with a question. I just bought a COLT GMT auto and love it! But I noticed the GMT hand is not aligned with the minute hand. For example when the minute hand is on the hour, the GMT hand is in between hours. And since the GMT hand only adjusts in one hour increments it's always off. Is there a way to fix this? Or is something wrong with the watch?
Thanks.

Can you show a pic of this? If the GMT hand is not squarely on one of the 24 hr. markers when the minute hand is at 12:00 position, then there is problem with alignment. I don't think there is an adjustment you can make, will need service (?)

I tried to upload a picture but it was too big? Maybe I'm doing something wrong. Thanks for your answer though. I don't really the GMT hand so I don't know if it's worth getting this looked at now, maybe when I service the watch in a few years.
