New Superocean running fast

I have a new superocean 42 that is running about 9 seconds fast, is this cause for concern? I've had it fro a little over a month, bought grey market. I have not reallly wound it much.

I would wind it a good 30-40 times and check it over 24 hours. You can also lay it in different positions at night to make it lose time. You need to figure out which position works for your watch. They all have their own personalities which make the gain or lose a certain amount over night, you just need to find the right position.

If that does not work, I would not be happy. My 42 runs darn near perfect. It takes a couple of days to gain one second.
