Try leaving the watch dial upwards overnight and see what happens to the accuracy.

Have to agree with you the most important thing with any mechanical watch in consistency.Afraid today Rolex has done a great job over the years brainwashing quite a few that all Rolex mechanical watches are spot on accurate.But in the real world thats not so there will be always tiny daily deviations.And to get any mechanical watch to self regulated,say by different resting positions at night is quite rare in the real world.But in general to loose a few seconds rest watch vertical crown up or down.But for any mechanical watch to show such consistency of +4 seconds I would be very very very happy.Nothing is perfect not even Rolex or any pure mechanical watch for absolute perfect timekeeping its that simple.
