loosing time!

Hi, six days ago I bought my first Omega - a Titanium SMP chrono-diver - I love it! ..... but it appears to be loosing around 15 seconds a day. I appreciate that the first few weeks should be a settling down period and the movement needs time to get all it's bits up and running but is this an acceptable amount of time loss? Part of the reason for my buying it in the first place was because I longed for an accurate mechanical swiss watch with all the 'romantic' notions that such a timepiece evokes and I was clear that I wanted a watch that was C.O.S.C. certified as this should, I thought, have ensured it's accuracy. Can anyone re-assure me that it will settle in or do I have to take it back to the dealer I bought it from? Thanks, J.
