Seems as if it might need an adjustment, but I doubt a full service is necessary.

Well M serial is from 2007/8 so should not need a full service yet.Some RSC will regulated a watch while you wait its only a 30 minute job.Not sure how much a AD would charge if they had a in-house watchmaker in shop.

I was banging my head against the wall recently also. My 2 1/2 year old Sub was running fast 10 seconds a day. Brought it to my AD(Tourneau) and they sent it to their own service center(under the Tourneau warranty as the Rolex one expired). Got it back two weeks later. It been regulated to +1 sec/day since. A simple reg is likeley all you need and you'll be back in business.

Relax, take a deep breath and search out your AD for a regulation
