As for the decoration, which I happen to find attractive; I really don't feel that art, even if it mimics functional objects (seemingly the internal workings of a watch in this case), need itself function as anything other than a work of art. Maybe I'm biased; I've been playing guitar since 1962, and I like unusual-looking instruments.
