Can you make money investing in watches?

Scored this Seiko M929-5030 yesterday from the local market on my way home, and if I’m reading the serial number correctly it was made in September 1980. It’s in very good condition for its age, not bad for $25.

I owned a few digital watches like this in the early 1980’s, the only thing that killed them was teenage exuberance, sports and gaming with friends that included a lot of force. Usually the band gave way or the glass shattered.
