# Luxury Doodle Watches The 'From the Earth to the Moon' Watch is Childish and Charitable By Michael Hines | Published 2011-07-12 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/from-the-earth-to-the-moon-watch References: [blog.perpetuelle](http://blog.perpetuelle.com/index.php/only-watch/van-cleef-arpels-from-the-earth-to-the-moon-for-only-watch-2011/) & [vancleef-arpels](http://www.vancleef-arpels.com/splash.jsp?zone=&lang=en) The 'From the Earth to the Moon' Watch is a wonderfully imaginative timepiece created by Swiss watchmakers [Van Cleef & Arpels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bejeweled-solar-system-set). This creative watch was designed for the 2011 Only Watch auction, a biennial auction held in Monaco to benefit Duchenne muscular dystrophy research. The face of the watch is unique in that it appears to have been inspired by a child's drawing of outer space. The coolest feature of the face, aside from the art, has to be the hour and minute hands, which are represented by a star and spaceship. The back of the watch features a more detailed engraving of the spaceship and a planet and a numbering (1/1) that lets everyone know just how rare this watch is. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 42% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/watches) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Imaginative Timepieces:** Creating watches with unique and imaginative designs inspired by various themes. - **Charitable Luxury:** Incorporating charitable initiatives into luxury products to support important causes. - **Childlike Inspiration:** Drawing inspiration from children's drawings and artwork to create whimsical and playful designs for luxury watches. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Luxury Watches:** Creating innovative luxury watches with unique designs and materials. - **Art and Design:** Exploring the intersection of art and luxury watches to create visually stunning timepieces. - **Philanthropy and Luxury:** Merging luxury products with charitable initiatives to create a positive impact while catering to high-end consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Celestial Tribute Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonswatch-mission-to-earthphase.md) - [Space-Inspired Titanium Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spaceone-tellurium.md) - [Earth-Inspired Wristwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mission-to-earth.md) - [Cartoon-Inspired Minimal Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mission-to-moonphase.md) - [Moon Landing-Themed Watch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moon-walker.md) - [Space-Age Watch Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/europa-clipper-exploration-watch.md) - [Space Exploration-Inspired Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-snoopy-moonswatch.md) - [Luxury Space-Themed Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-themed-timepiece.md) - [Galaxy-Inspired Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ur-100v-lightspeed.md)
