For now the market still looks great (which is why it’s a good time to sell), but 20, 30, 50, or 100 years from now, how can anyone be certain wearing mechanical watch is still a thing.

some people will always wear jewelry, which is what these are; they just happen to tell the time as well.

there will always be show-offs and collectors out there, and those than want to demonstrate that they can afford vs those that can't or prefer not to. human nature.
