Seamaster Mystery

I have a 20 year old Seamaster that had an overhaul and refresh by a very reputable watchmaker. The watch worked flawlessly at the repair shop after the refresh. Once I got it back it started to loose 5 minutes or so intermittently. I returned it to the watchmaker, he rechecked all his work and it worked perfectly for him - he wore the watch for a week with out any problems. Once I put the watch on again the intermittent problem started again. I even had my son try wearing it and he had the same issue. The loosing of time doesn't seem to have any pattern. Currently it has run for about 24 hours with out any problem. Any suggestions on how to solve this mystery?
