New SMP running slow

Well it has been 5 days since I got my automatic Seamaster Pro and after 5 days it is roughly 5 seconds slow. It did not lose time on a steady pace but rather lost 2 sec twice, gained 1 second once, etc.
This ammount of time loss really is not important to me; however, I am somewhat worried because this is on the low end of the Omega specs of -1 to +6 (or whatever it said in the book) and because I have read that watches tend to lose time as they break-in. If my watch is already slow, should I be expecting it to get even slower?

I am currently in the process of experimenting with different overnight positions and I will see if this has a dramatic effect.
I would also be thankful for any other recommended courses of action.

Thanks!
