Complexity of modern mechanical watch movements...
I remember reading somewhere that many modern watch movement designs start out by making a simple functioning movement movement more complex. The price of a watch also dictates that a certain min. amount of parts be used. Is this sort of like those cartoon elaborate contraptions which the cat builds to catch a mouse (burning candle which burns a rope holding a bowling ball, which would roll against a pin that pops a balloon... you get the point).
