The deps are a bit backwards (but not the job ordering):

ntp-wait.service
        Wants=time-sync.target
        Before=time-sync.target

I.e. the job for time-sync.target is pulled in but it doesn't depend on
anything (the target itself has no Wants=) so it just succeeds after
ntp-wait.service job finishes (fails).

It's the RestartSec=11min in the ntpd.service configuration that delayed
the restart attempt.

Hopefully that explains the behavior you saw.
