That's a fair point. The movements aren't "disposable" in the sense that they're going into the trash. It's more of a game of musical chairs. I guess I just like the idea of the same movement ticking away in my watch for decades, provided I take care of it.
It does serve to essentially cut out the local independent watchmaker and force you to send it to a RSC when it's time for a service. I'm not a fan of that at all.
