The mechanical watches are not open source at all - most (all?) of them do not come with engineering drawings nor with list of materials.
Even if you have a watch in front of you, it does not mean you can create a copy of it without a lot of work - you need to measure every gear, guess the materials used (how stiff should this spring be?), and re-draw mainplate and dial.
Compare to things like old electronics, which came with full schematics, service manual and sometimes even debugging guide.
Since mechanical watches are, by design, open source, there will always be a technician interested in keeping them going.
