SeMP Chrono accuracy

I recently purchased a used Seamaster pro chrono (3years old) and I am having some accuracy problems.
It runs approx 20 seconds fast per day regardless of how I position it overnight but if I engage the chrono function the accuracy is within 2/3 seconds per day. I have other automatic chronographs and another Omega and have not seen this type of problem.
The watch was at the Lancaster PA service center less than 1 year ago for a problem with the minute counter sticking(took two visits to get it fixed!)I was told that it was "adjusted".
Any thoughts or suggestions (besides leaving the chrono engaged)?

Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Dave
