What makes a watch run slow?

Being bored (i.e. long meeting)

Should I get it regulated, accept it, or flip it? It is absolutely beautiful.

That is out of spec, might need to be regulated, though from what I understand, if a watch runs consistently slow or fast, there may be absolutely nothing wrong with it.

The real sign of trouble is when it starts behaving erratically: -10 one day, + then the next etc.....
