I suspect even some costing even just half of the price might always be prohibitive for many folks.

Indeed, even affording such things, I can't ague soundly that spending such sums makes sense for any reason other than to assuage one's personal yearnings. The fakes, or even the knock-offs that only closely ape high-dollar timepieces, all are quite effective so long as they are of the uncomplicated variety. I can see how someone not really serious about collecting fine watches could easily justify a couple hundred or less in lieu of $10K+.

All the best.

It's illegal. Plain and simple. A person serving up cheeseburgers doesn't just perform brain surgery one day because they realize they will never be able to afford a Patek otherwise.

Life is made up of different people in all different classes. That's life.
