The OP indicated that he is only wearing the watch "once in a while". So wear on the movement (including the auto-winding mechanism) could be increased greatly on the winder, as @Zapokee mentioned. My feeling is that if he's wearing the watch less than once a week, it's probably better just to let it run down.
