While I love this red line sub and the service updated 1655, what does their future hold as collectibles?

Won’t they all have to eventually be updated? I mean, won’t the radium or tritium just fall out of the hands or off the lume plots and cause damage to the movement eventually? Aren’t these watches to be worn?

I’ve heard of people who collect service dial variants, so if that segment of collecting takes off, they could end up doing well. I imagine they will always fall short of their original counterparts ; although scarcity seems to drive demand in a lot of cases with the watch market so really hard to predict
