willy Skrev:That famous advertisment was 2-3 years ago it was discussed on time zone and many other bloggs.I read thousands of articles every week and i cannot store them all.I know it was printed in the New York Times and several other leading newspapers.It was a full page ad with pictures of the calibers JLC have made through time.You can easy research it Willy

Med flere tusinde artikler om ugen vedr. ure igennem systemet, har jeg naturligvis fuld forståelse for du ikke kan huske alle kilde etc.
Nu har jeg selv søgt lidt - uden held, så måske du gider sakse et link næste gang du støder på noget vedr. emnet?

Selve reklamen kunne være sjov at se, men det der er virkelig interessant, er hvilke Brands der ”skulle ha’ tigget JLC om at fjerne
reklamen igen”. Har episoden udspillet sig i Richemonts regeringstid, er det vel svært at forestille sig en reklame rettet mod Brands
indenfor egne rækker (Richemont). Så måske det var AP & Patek der bad om nåde?

No brands asked JLC directly to remove the ad.But it became a embarrasment for Richemont because it told the public to much about other brands so called inhouse calibers.And the ad was not repeated it caused quite a stir in watch circles.I read bloggs for at least 3 hours everyday but sending links etc etc is not me.If i run across it again i will make a note of it and send you a PB.And i think you must know just how many top brands owe a lot of their reputations as manufactures to JLC.Because for many years JLC and Rolex have been the only true inhouse swiss watch makers.There are not many top brands you can talk about that now or in the past have not built their reputations on the back of JLC.Hence the title The Watchmakers Watch.
