1966 Lady-Date Rolex Ad Some People Want More Than Just A Pretty Face


...Vintage Rolex Hotness...

1966 Lady-Date Rolex Ad
Some People Want More Than Just A Pretty Face




I have a couple interesting observations about this ad which was published the years I was born. First, it says, "Once upon a time, a ladies' watch was a little frilly thing." 

This is kind of funny, because the vast majority of women who purchase Rolex watches today don't wear the smaller size Rolex pictured in the ad. Also, it is interesting to note that in the bottom right hand of the ad, it says (Founder: H. Wilsdorf), which is probably the latest Rolex ad I recall seeing that mentions him, despite the fact he had passed away six years prior to this ad being published.
