From this perspective, it is fortunate that these movements are mass-produced. That is why I do not see a future where there would be no mechanical parts for them from Rolex.

However, another question is whether it is good for us if ONLY Rolex can repair its watches? Obviously not, but it is only a financial question, since it "only" means that there will be no cheaper and, in some cases, better alternative to factory service. However this is not something exceptional, as this is the common case with almost all brands.

EDIT: However, I do not think anyone can be sure how long Rolex will support the OQ watches. Maybe the Mark II will be supported for decades, but the Mark I can be outdated soon. And it is likely that the Beta21 models are already obsolete.

It’s not just a financial decision if no 3rd party options are out there, and then Rolex stops supporting models after a few decades, as they’ve already done.
