I have three monsters and all run fast. I don't worry about it. At least they don't run slow.

I've had mine for three years on the 27th of this month. It's run +7 since it was new and still does. That doesn't bother me because that means that it's consistent which is a good thing with a mechanical watch

I even heard people saying they did +20 in their early life and later do nearly +10..so I am guessing a consistent anything under 10 is an acceptable accuracy for monsters.

My 007 is about +5 to 7 seconds. Pretty good for a $150 auto that can go 20+ years without service.
