Sure it's for charity but I also think it's the next step for watches.  When timekeeping has gone almost as far as it can, cases can only get so unique, materials can only get so exotic or bizarre the only left as a canvas is the Dial.  I've always liked the idea of art on dials and these are just a simplified version of art.  It would truly make a watch limited edition if each dial was hand painted or something.  I think it's obscene to charge astronomical amounts for them but the idea, I think, is just another kind of sophisticated modification.  Imagine having a family crest on the watch you're going to pass on to your children...I'm just sayin...
 

I understand your POV but Depeche Mode? Yuck and even yuckier because they are played out. Now if they made them with Dead Milkmen album art...toon1.gif
