Hey community,

I'm thinking of getting an Omega Pre-Bond in quartz. Already found a nice example but the seconds hand doesn't hit the markers.

Should a watchmaker be able the re-align the seconds hand so that it hits the markers?

Even if you get it to align in some places, it won’t be in alignment on every index.

I wouldn’t let this deter you from purchasing the watch. It’s not an issue whatsoever.

If it really bothers you go for the automatic version.
