My LE is about 25 seconds a day fast against our radio controlled clock.

It doesn't really matter as I rarely wear it two days together but do you think I should get Chris to sort it?

I would suggest you wear it consistly over a week to 10 days and check the performance then before sending it back.

You will then have a track record to make a valid decision.
