CMV : I don't see the point of having a luxury watch (2000$+)

See, I'm a watchmaker and I can't really make the idea that having a luxury watch has a point. I can't think of dropping such money for a luxury timepiece, and I often fix them. 

Some say it's an investment but to be honest the only "investment" to be made buying watches is in the really high end like Rolex Daytonas with Paul Newman dials, the ones worth to invest in are in the 400,000$+ Range and even then, it's not a sure investment and it probably wont get more then a 2-3% price increase per year. 

Is there a reason to buy such a watch ?

Well, the reason is quite simple really. The people who buy luxury goods (not just watches) do so because they can. For someone with millions in the bank, 2K is change. Quite literally change. And that change buys you a nice thing that comes with the added bonus of being a status symbol. 

Now, not all rich people care about luxury goods, of course. 

You can also find people who aren't that well off and still buy them because, once again, it's a status symbol thing. Ego. Showing yourself and others that you can (even if realistically you shouldn't). 

Human nature is a curious thing.
