I've noticed my Daytona either ticks slow or fast - I did not wear it all day yesterday, and this morning, I see its about 2 minutes faster than normal time, and sometimes when I wear it often, I notice its off slightly (I set it to the second of "Official US Time") - Any ideas? Do I need to wind it on my own a few times or take it in?

What do you mean by "off slightly"? All mechanical watches will vary in their time keeping ability.

Give it 70 full winds, keep it wound and wear it and check it over 30 days. Then see how it performs.

Occasional wear will not tell you much.
