x2 I wouldn't have my GMT opened just to fix this.

tool watch enough said! infact the 24 hr mark and the dial minute and hour marks are to serve as just an approximate reference! same logic as slightly off bezels!

With all due respect. I disagree. At this price point I expect a certain level of fit, finish, attention to detail. And accuracy. Hands that are "almost right" doesn't cut it for me. Same with an off bezel. Of course, if one is in it strictly as a tool and are willing to spend $10K for a tool that is not even doing it's primary job accurately (displaying the time) then sure, it's no big deal.

I saw an Omega Speedmaster 9300 in a boutique that had the same problem one time, only it was more pronounced.

I would want it fixed as well. Good luck.
