Somewhere between the balloon animal and the bank vault sits the new timepiece born from Jeff Koons's oversized inflatable dog sculptures, the same puffed-up silhouette that has made grown collectors grin in museum lobbies from West Palm to Naples. It's a strange pairing on paper, sculpture house meets watch bench, and stranger still that it works. Down here, where the wrist is as much a statement as the driveway, a piece this playful still has to earn its place next to the usual polished reserve. This one seems to.
