    gold watches are the kind of thing that are proudly passed around as family heirlooms

    Which further points the absurdity of this thing. Gold watch that has expiration date built-in and no one will look at it after that. Mechanical watches can last indefinitely given enough care and love. No matter how much you love this thing, when Apple decides it’s done, it’s done.
