This is a perfect answer that does work, just make sure the digital time is correct before adjusting the hands (as described above)

Ive just had my battery changed and same problem...just perform the following or rtfm as they say....

The analogue hands are not precisely synchronised with
the digital time? Do the following:

1. Press the lower right button to move the mode indicator hand to CHR.

2. Pull the lower right button out one click. The hour, minute and UTC hands will retract towards the straight up 12 O’clock position. You will see UTC on the top half of the digital display.

3. Press the upper right button to advance the hands to the straight up 24-hour position. Use the lower left button to go in reverse.

4. Press the upper left button. You will see HR on the top half of the digital display. Press the upper right button to advance the hour and 24-hour hand clockwise until they both point straight up at the 24-hour position. Use the lower left button to move the hand anti-clockwise.

5. Press the upper left button. You will see MIN on the top half of the digital display. Press the upper right button to advance the minute hand clockwise or the lower left button to move anti-clockwise until it is pointing straight up at the 12 O’clock position.

6. Push the lower right button back in one click.
The watch malfunctions in some way and the above
procedures do not work.
