I suspect it's more like Rolex or Porsche. New technology leads to better core function at a fraction of the cost (quartz watches and electric cars), but there's some artistry to the old mechanical way of doing things. Precise analog machines can be cool even with their faults (or because of them) - I think that's the point.
