How droll. That's much more easily said than done. Many folks can save a lifetime and never reach a point where sensible it becomes for them to drop the kind of money it takes to buy watches such as the ones you pictured. 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.
