ON MY WATCH

 

ON MY WATCH

        Is there a connection between chic, expensive watches and beautiful, gorgeous women? I think the answer to that is “absolutely!”

        Just take a look at the print ads of the different brands of watches below and decipher the enigma in your mind.

          Whew! Horology, horologist, horologiast! If only these were a real collection of awesome watches instead of mere print ads. That would be something. I hope Robert Downey Jr would read this and give me one among his collection, just for the kick of it, and well because he’s my favorite Hollywood actor and Iron Man is my favorite superhero.

THE ODDS OF PRINT ADS


THE ODDS OF PRINT ADS



          The following posts are self-explanatory, no need for much additional essay to give details. They’re print ads, they actually shout in silence what they are trying to impart or sell.
          Indeed the best print ads, need very little texts. It’s the visuals that really do the talking. Consumers only need to look and their minds will do the rest.
