Rolex gmt master 2(gmt hand inaccurate)

Hi! So my watch is delayed for 2 hours at the gmt hand whenever I set the time. For example if I don't move the bezel, and it is 12 pm, the gmt hands would be placed on 14th hour on the bezel. This is really frustrating. Is it really like this? I just got my watch like a week ago. Thanks a lot

I don't really understand your question, but basically the GMT hand moves at have the "speed" of the hour hand.

If this is a GMT-Master II that we're talking about, the hour hand is independently adjustable from the 24 hour hand. There is a middle position when pulling the crown out to adjust the regular (mercedes) hour hand.

Yes, I know that. Thanks, Thing is, I want to set the gmt hand, let's say I wanna set it to 12pm, the gmt arrow goes to the 2pm mark, in my understanding it should be in line to the center 12. Thanks bro

Sorry, I still don't understand what the issue is? If you want the hour hand and the GMT hand to both be set to 12pm, set the time with the GMT hand to 12pm and then push the crown in one position and move the mercedes hour hand so it's also at 12pm.

Problem solved! Thanks man, sorry I was expecting it to have the same configuration with my skydweller whereis when you set the gmt time there, you would have to use the 2nd timezone. My mistake! Thanks a lot man! Cheers!
