To the OP's question, Yes they are worth the money, if you are into watches. Don't expect to buy a Rolex and make money on it, but that is certainly possible if you choose the right model and buy at the right time. They are only worth it if you have the spare $$ and enjoy a very well made timepiece. And even the Rolex haters cannot argue that they are extremely well made machines and feel really nice on the wrist. So, yes they are worth it and if I had ~10-50K to blow, I'd happily spend it on a Rolex without regret. I've had many in the past and only sold to free up cash for other interests and I usually get most of my money out of it. Having said that there are a lot of other non-Rolex watches that are pretty darn nice (mechanically better in many cases) and for far less money. However other brands don't tend to hold their value as well as Rolexes. They are not made in China, and yes the demand has consistently outpaced the supply and continues to do so.
