    Not sure about that ... I was thinking classic print ads.

    Sorry........ Strictly speaking it's a made up ad but my warped sense of humour couldn't resist!

    Not an advertisement, but an unwitting ambassador....Evan Davis on Newsnight - for GShock (which model is that he wears?).

    saw this at Dubai airport a few years ago with IWC and Hublot i think. thought it was a great piece of advertising at the time.

    It looks like our man SimonK has this one sewn up, well and truly.

    Excellent.

    IWC are also famous for the 2007 Hong Kong newspaper ad for their Big Pilot watches:

    "Often seen on stewardesses' bedside tables"
    .

    Can anyone find a copy of it? I can't.

    As above IWC have had some interesting marketing ideas.

    Citizen Winker? What were they thinking?

    Sorry I can't contribute an advert.

    But thank you for starting it.

    Firstly, I can't get over the price of the Sub!!!!!!

    Secondly, While growing up, I remember seeing all the Rolex adverts, with the famous person wearing them and thought back then that one day I would get a Rolex. Especially Arnold Palmer and his Day Date. :))))

    Thirdly, Those IWC adverts are so, err…………………… But made me smile :)

    Keep them coming

    Interesting to see how macho they are and how they focus on selling by association rather than on the benefits of the product ...

    Does not seem to be any focus on selling to women, are their any women on this forum?

    Yes, super advert... "Hublot condemns all acts of violence" *small print*, except where it has the outside possibility of lining our pockets".


    My faves are any of the Accurist adverts with John Clese;

    There must have been some good Omega Speedy Pro adverts form that era? Anyone care to share?
