Sinn 105 UTC – GMT hand misaligned

The GMT hand on my Sinn 105 UTC is slightly misaligned, has been since new, and it really bugs me. I know it doesn’t look like much, but it’s even worse when it’s between hour markers. Am I being unreasonable, or should I expect more from a $2000+ watch?

Any suggestions? Should I contact Sinn directly? Take it to a local watchmaker for adjustment…

Just bought this Sinn U2 GMT

I own dozens of watches, but have always wanted a Sinn. Particularly a U1 or U2. One was listed not long ago on eBay Australia.

Talk to me about Sinn service options…

So I recently talked to RGM about getting my 856 serviced, they said 12 month lead time… I love this watch and can’t imagine parting with it for that long.

Anyone have experience with sending back to Sinn main in Germany recently? How long did it take with them?

Alternatively, any other US based service centers you all recommend? Part of the reason I got the 856 over the 556 is the moisture capsule and gas purging, so I would prefer to send it to RGM or Sinn since my understanding is…
