Hello dear Members, I found some old swiss and french Ads in Art Magazines from the 40s here some of the Watch Ads and pictures.
If you want pictures in better quality I could try to scan them.
Cheers

 

The Longines with the globes is stunning. Thx for sharing

 

Maybe a slight title change and this could be a general thread for vintage watch ads. I also have a couple still in their magazines

 

Those ads are works of art themselves!

 

Thanks for posting.

 

Sounds great, what title should I use?

 

Uhh I don’t know Perhaps just vintage watch ads or something like that

 

Here are a couple from some US magazines and some from Great Britain. All from the mid 60’s

A rather cool Bulova ad


An Incabloc ad


A Rado ad


And two watch companies I don’t know

 

I’m wearing something similar the Pictured UG watches now. I love old print ads.

 

Didn’t find this myself, but purchased from AdPatina and just arrived literally 20 minutes ago:

 

Are the black leather straps stingray?

 

I had that wetsuit! Paid all of $27 for it in 1975. It was stiff as a board and cold as a polar bear's nuts.

 

Wow, I usually run away at the mere hint of a bear! Any bear.

How'd you manage to get so close to a polar bear? And survive that testing?

 

Would it have been better, if it had been cold as a board and stiff as a polar bear’s nuts?

 

Got a few Heuer ones, keep meaning to get the loose ones framed.

 

I've always had an issue with the length of the bracelet. But a nice advertisement.

 

Haha, great ad
