>2. To make a fasion statement.
Bingo. I enjoy the satisfaction of having an extremely complicated mechanical device winding away on my wrist, but it's ultimately a piece of jewelry. This is evident in the industry itself. Most watches inherit the same class of movements; in-house is becoming rarer. But each looks different, and appeals to a different person. As long as fashion is alive, mechanical watches will continue to be bought.

This is definitely true, particularly among some of the ultra-thin quartz movements. A good chunk of the ones I've seen (and owned?) have used Japanese quartz movements. What differs is the packaging.
