Marc Jacobs loves Sailor Moon

The Sailor Moon Star Locket is one of the most sought after Sailor Moon collectibles floating around, and probably the most expensive! A factory sealed locket will run you anywhere from $300 -$800, but it's easy to see why! The locket looks just like the one from the cartoon, and it even plays the same song! I have never seen one in person before, and I probably never will. However, I recently came across this crazy Marc Jacobs star necklace @ Saks Fith Avenue.... See where i'm going with this? The Sailor Moon Star Locket has a very distinct shape to it... the same shape Mr. Jacobs has chosen for his necklace. Plus, why not just make a plain star with no clock, or have some other image in the center. The circle shape in the center just makes me even more suspicious of some super hero influence! Now, having a musical locket for the pendant would probably be too complicated and bulky for an elegant necklace...not to mention pricey! So what's the obvious alternative to some kind of circular gadget to stick in the center? A clock! 

What's your interpretation of this piece? Is Marc Jacobs a Sailor Moon fan? or is this just one big coincidence?
