Not sure what's sad about it?

Keeps them all to the correct time and moving, wouldn't want a watch to be just left not working for years.

Not at Rolex service prices.

If you are keeping them long term and pay that you'd never ever make any money on them.

How much is a service? £100 (double or triple that probably)

If each watch only cost you even £100 every 2 years how will you make any money at all?

Because the value increase is exponential on certain model variations.

So the watches you have there will eventually go up in value enough to cover a service at £300 every 2 years? Really?

Sums don't add up.

So prices increasing like that in the past 30 years = the curve continuing like that, delusional is the word for this I think.
