Not much into watch art that I can't wear on my wrist or put on my shirt (aka cuff links!).

Ok we need some context here since you're asking for thoughts. If my 4 year old did this I'd be thrilled, however, it's actually a pretty lame attempt otherwise.

- the bezel is lopsided at 5 o'clock
- the screw heads are not aligned
- the crown guards are not equally sized
- the crown is not aligned with the centre of the hands
- the bracelet plots are wrong

The watch that is displayed here is a wonderful example of pop art that has been created by any artist. I think all the dimensions and other features are quite perfect.
