 Again it's not a habit on my part.  I only do it when I know that I won't wear the watch for a couple of days.  I don't think it's practical to go thru each watch in our collection and hand-wind each of them on a daily basis but that's just me.

Perfect example.  Last week I hand-wound my Enzo on Monday because it stopped after not being worn for at least 48 hours.  I didn't wind it all week but it kept running.  I finally took it off on Friday and it stopped Sunday morning at about 4am.  I consider this normal.

The week prior to last I did the same with the Zeno - hand-wound it on Monday and wore it for 4 days.  I took it off Thursday evening and went to sleep at 11pm.  When I woke up the next morning the watch had already stopped at 5 minutes before 6am.

With all due respect, I'm not knocking the 2824 movement or Zeno for that matter but I don't think I'm even getting close to the power reserve on this watch.
