The `C-w' is only to "mark" the word, i.e. to say which word(s) you want to
visit. Thereafter, all you need is `C-s' for "the marked word to be found
next". And you can of course use any other key you like (e.g. f3) instead of
`C-s'.
So wrt laziness: hitting `f3' to visit each occurrence is no more difficult than
hitting `f3' to visit each occurrence. ;-)

For that example, if you want to visit only the `ex1-ex2' occurrences, then
start by `C-s C-w C-w'.
Another alternative, besides `C-s' and the one Tassilo mentioned, is `occur'.
You can also access `occur' from `isearch' (`C-s').
And there are `occur' variants (enhancements) that provide other behavior.
Thierry Volpiatto's `ioccur' is one. Icicles's `C-'' is another
(`icicle-occur'). All of these (including vanilla `occur') let you not only
cycle among occurrences but also visit specific occurrences directly.
