Does anyone know how to align this? Is there a way to do it?

When I hit the reset button this is where it ends up.

Long press top pusher, double press bottom pusher whilst doing the hokey pokey.::rimshot::

J/k, take it to watchmaker is my advice.

Yeah, unfortunately it's broke.
Quartz are easy to do, these need a watchmaker.

When I use the chrono and reset it, it will jump ever so slightly to an even worse position.

If it's not always resetting to the same location, it may require more than a simple adjustment.

If you’ve had it serviced in the past, this might be a warranty adjustment. Worth a thought.

I haven't had it serviced. It may be time.

I think something is worn out. Most likely.

If the position it stops at is changing each time you reset, the first thing that comes to mind is that the hand is not tight on the post. If it's due for a service anyway, having that done is a good idea, and this issue would be resolved during the service. The tube of the hand can be tightened...

That may be the issue. I am sending it in today. We shall see what they say.
