I have a pocket watch. Not very cheap, but not a high end one. I ended up overwinding it. When the winding spring is broken, the watch is useless. The cost to repair would be more than the watch itself.

That wouldn't be the case for a Rolex (if overwinding would cause the spring to break), but I have yet to see a post on here where anyone had to take their Rolex to get it repaired because they overwound it and broke the spring.
