Fine either way.
It is said that if you keep the watch running, the "servicing" or "overhaul" interval would/ should be shorter because, obviously, the inside would be worn faster. If you work the watch once a month, naturally, the servicing interval would/ should be longer.
(Note: whether the watch needs servicing would be yet another "subjective" judgement by you - but it is recommended to have it serviced if the watch starts running very very slow or very very fast, and/ or the position difference become so big, etc.)
As long as you don't mind such deterioration of accuracy, you can keep using it.
Winder?
Royal Oak Jumbo - is it recommended to keep it on a winder when not wearing, or is it better to let it wind down and then wind it again when wearing again? I know, I should wear everyday but don't always get a chance to. If a winder is recommended, any ti...
Generally speaking....
.. no need to put automatic watches on the winder. The only issue may be the date, right? But if you spare one minute to adjust the time and the date, you hand wind 10 times, and off you go! But, it is recommended to have the watch work once a month, if y...
Thanks

Ken gives solid advice.
You will not hurt the watch either way. I winder can be convenient for something like a 15202, with the unconventional date change adjuster.
personally
I would recommend a SwissKubiK winder if you'd opt using one. Obviously there are many more roads to Rome.
