Am I being over sensitive?

Name changed in case a bit outing...

Dad died last year. I have his watches. One of which I have put into a jewellers for service and repair. Got the quote back, £150.

Told my boyfriend of 5 years on messenger that I'd had the quote for repair and told him how much.

His reply? 'LOL'

When I asked him why he said that he replied 'I didn't know how to reply so I just threw that out there'.

When I said I was upset by his response and lack of empathy he replied 'think about what you're saying. Why would your dads watches be important to anyone but you?'

I miss my dad so much and these watches are worth more to me than any financial value they may have, and he knows that.

AIBU to think he could have shown a bit more empathy and in fact he's being a bit of a cock? Or am I being over sensitive here?

Going to bed in a huff now so if I don't come back to the thread until tomorrow that's why.
