Have owned a Omega Speedmaster from new about 6 years its the latest model (master chronometer) its time keeping was excellent for first 2/3 years but since as been losing about 7 secs daily, don't want it servicing as yet as I don't wear it everyday was just wondering if its possible to just have it regulated for better accuracy, or is it acceptable? believe they should be within 0 to +5

7 seconds slow daily is well out of spec.

The 3861 Speedmaster launched in Jan 2021, so the oldest models will now be out of warranty. Check your warranty card for when it was dated. If you're just inside warranty still, get it to Omega ASAP.

Yeah warranty should take care of it if still in date. I had a Tag Heuer Carrera a few years ago that was about 2 years old at the time and started to lose around 10 secs a day randomly. It was still in warranty and I sent it off and they recalibrated it free of charge.

If you take it to an omega boutique with an on site watch maker they will regulate it free of charge assuming it doesn't need a service. If it needs a service they will let you know.

If you want someone trustworthy to have a look at it and give you a genuine diagnosis, try going to Prime Time Watch Repairs in Ormskirk.
