Many things affect the gain/loss of a watch. If it's brand new, give it a month or two to break in. This is a process of letting the oils get properly distributed and the watch getting used to running. You might find that it slows down a bit. Remember, these are mechanical creations and have individual personalities. Some do better than others. While +5 seconds is nothing to write home about, it is still pretty good and within Chronometer spec of -4/+6 seconds per day. I find that my SeMP America's cup does much better when it's on a watch winder, less than +1 sec/day. I have found this to be the case with other watches I own as well.
