[HELP] Second hand not zeroing on Omega Speedmaster.

I have the limited edition omega speedmaster Michael Schumacher edition. The second hand does not zero when the chronometer is reset. It is about one click off from the 12 o'clock position. Is there anyway i can zero it again?

Added a really poorly shot photo... Excuse the photo, my phone camera has a serious bug .

Sorry for no imgur.. didnt work. http://postimg.org/image/vkde8v5e5/

Is it consistently off by the same amount or does it drift on reset?

I'd have someone look at it. It could be something as simple as re-installing the hand correctly centered or replacing the hand if the tube is not fitting to the post tight enough. Or it could be something mechanical that needs to be addressed.

You need to bring it to an authorized AD. If its still under warranty and you live in NYC, you can get in fixed in 2 weeks.. Just bring it to the main boutique, they have a whole floor dedicated to doing simple stuff like this. My friends speedy had this issue last year. Just bring it on them. Dont forget your warranty card!

Its free under warranty.
