Not a dumb model. Scarcity is what gives them value. If they produced as much as demand the value would collapse.

Is Rolex the only watch that appreciates over time?

So you got a Walmart watch instead of a Rolex. Damn

If I pay $10k+ for a watch, it better be able to give me a blow job on demand.

Why would I care about how anyone else spends their money?

Watch are gay, I’ve never wore one of those sissy things. A real man keeps time by the sun.

I'm not defending Rolex but from 1962 to 1995 James Bonds watch about 90% of the time was a Rolex. The omega thing is pretty new

Unlike women and their handbags, most people don’t take notice or care what brand of watch you’re wearing.
It’s more about pride of ownership which is perfectly okay. Like Tiffany’s for jewelry.

Its also something of value to pass on when you pass on.
That way, they aren't so pissed when they're cleaning out the attics and the garages.

Original Bond watch Rolex is a Submariner 6538 big crown (which lives on in the design language of the current Tudor Black Bay 41mm). There was also a Seiko period during the Roger Moore years.

The exception to that is Rolex. Its basically the only watch brand that anyone notices, and is the reason for their weird arse business model. If they made them accessible, even if they didnt lower prices, their whole brand craters overnight.

The short answer is no, but across multiple model lines and moedls it comes as close to "currency" as a watch can come. Not only because they are recognizable, but because they are so good and dependable 50 or more years down the road and widely, widely servicable.
Watch knowledge and Rolex hate very closely mirrors several plots on the Dunning-Kruger effect curve.
