Ran the numbers for you.

means about 3months on-demand or 4.5~ months reserved.
Not nearly as bad as I was expecting to be perfectly honest with you.
I did similar calculations recently and it ended up being 3 months for equivalent server grade hardware (IE; 256GiB ECC ram, 64 physical threads; 8TiB NVMe) -- so I bought the hardware and since then have saved more than 3x the cost.
It seems not to be the case with Graviton instances I guess. :D
