Sounds like the watch has been magnetized... If the watch hasn't been subjected to any shocks or jolts this is the most probable cause. Take your watch to your nearest Authorized Dealer, explain the fault and ask if they can demagnitize the watch. There is a fairly good chance that this might bring the accuracy back to a more reasonable variance.
