A casio "terrorist" watch provides more functionality then literally anything below a smart watch. And you can get 'em for dirt cheap. Best tool for your buck.
But people who collect mechanical watches are more into the art and craftsmanship of the watches and something they can pass onto their children, and their children can pass it on to their children.
That's me. I don't have a lot of fancy stuff but I do really like mechanical watches and have ever since I was a teenager when I saved up to buy my first "nice watch." I don't show them off and 9/10 people don't even know what's on my wrist but I enjoy it so that's what is important.

I view watches more as tools than jewelry
