New System Preferences icon and Charlie Chaplin - Coincidence?

I looked at this icon for a long time before it finally hit me. What do you think?

I popped the back off of my old pocket watch, and its looks a closer match to Leopard's System preference icon then your example, but I would doubt if Apple copied that either.
Come to think of it, that icon has a strong resemblance to my old trucks timing gears also.

Good find.

I went ahead and replaced it with the default icon to complete my custom dock. Thank you.

Doubt it was a copy. Gears tend to look alike.

Seems as though there has been a lot of necrothreading lately.

To me is seems a little dead in here lately and it seems others that are feeling the same.

 

[fryke]

But wouldn't that be a reason to create _new_ threads instead of digging up dead ones?

Heaven forbid!
