In general, there are a lot of factors that can affect how a watch runs....from the state of wind to positional variation to temperature variation....then shocks, magnetism, etc.
In this case, it's likely just positional variation. The Speedmaster Pro is not a COSC watch, so it has very generous running tolerances for accuracy. Since it's not COSC, it is only measured in 3 positions instead of 5 that a COSC would be checked in. Over those 3 positions at full wind, the watch can vary up to 15 seconds. At full wind -24 hours, it can vary up to 20 seconds over those 3 positions. All the watch has to do is spend a little bit more time in a position that runs a bit faster, and you get the sort of gain you are seeing.
Since the average daily rate tolerance for this watch is from -1 to +11 seconds per day, you still have a very accurate watch.
