Your analysis isn't your cost of ownership. It is simply the purchase price divided by an arbitrary number of years.. hardly an "analysis" and fails in several areas..

First, you are assuming that it is in the "family" for that long..... all well and good, but that isn't your term of ownership. If you croak next year, then your "cost of ownership per year" was $7600 for the single year that you had it. For whom ever else gets the watch, their cost is zero for the next 74 years (plus any maintenance costs)
