Is anyone actually going to use those complications? That's really my question for most high-end watches. I can see a diver using the features on their watch, but how many are actually using a Rolex or an Omega as their regular dive watch?
Chronographs, while cool, isn't exactly a useful why of measuring speed these days, and how often do you really need to do that anyway.
On a mechanical watch having the date might be useful, I know I keep forgetting the exact date, but do I really need a watch to remind me that it's Saturday?
I really love mechanical wristwatches, the mechanics of it is amazing and they are beautiful pieces or engineering and works great as an accessory/jewellery, but I don't understand the need for many of the complications.
The watch with the most complications is any $200 WearOS. You will need to have spent over $1,000,000 on their other watches before they will talk to you about a price for this one; practicality is not a factor to consider.
Everyone will see and praise how good you are. The elite swordmakers of royalty did not think their elaborate swords would see battle, they knew it was a show piece. The point was not the use, was the position and recognition it brought you.
More than half of the watch world does not appreciate the engineering. They appreciate the exclusivity.
