The Three Apes Timepiece by Chronoswiss for Only Watch 2013

For a charity auction Only Watch 2013, which will take place this year in September 28, in Monaco, the Swiss watch brand Chronoswiss has developed a new timepiece The Three Apes (Ref. CH-6721R-OW2013). The model name is associated with the image of animals on the dial. Monkeys symbolize the Buddhist idea of non-doing of evil, of detachment from the untrue. "If I see no evil, hear no evil, and of not saying anything about it, then I am protected from it" - the idea of "not seeing", "not hearing" and "not speaking" of evil.
