Unhappy Suunto Mariner not keeping time

I've had my Mariner watch (purchased through Sailnet.com) for about 1 year and I like a lot of the features but it is miserable at keeping time which seems unforgiveable for a watch that costs this much money.

As an example, I set my watch to sync it with my handheld GPS (very accurate time hack) on Saturday afternoon. It is now Tuesday morning and the watch has lost 2 seconds. Very frustrating.

Another issue is that every now and again the watch will reset to 1/1/2000 @ 18:00. It will do this even when it is sitting quitely on my dresser waiting for me to put it on for the next regatta.

Is anyone else experiencing these issues with their Mariner?
