AT runs REALLY fast

I purchased an AT several months ago and it regularly ran +5 minutes fast a day. I sent it in to factory service center to be adjusted etc. and the repair personnel said the watch ran spot on when it left. A check with atomic clock shows last 24 hours it ran 9 1/2 minutes fast. I see several threads where patience is cautioned, but that was for much smaller time differentials.

Is it possible that the watch suffered some electromagnetic field while in transit from repair center via FEDEX?

Should I just suck it up, have to adjust the watch daily until it slows down?

Have any of the learned members (Zowie, Keith, etc.) of this group heard of such a situation?

I love my watch, but am very perplexed by its performance.
