Jaeger-LeCoultre

Was lucky enough to get a peek or two ,
- pretty Dark Art in there, I learned ..

Well, one has to start early, always
digging deep - and trying to hang on..

That can make some journeys hilarious ,
as we got to know !

Always a pleasure being at your wings ,

us back to the past Blomman - watches and romance seemed to be more intertwined then.

Congrats on your 5k. A contributor with substance that provides interesting reading and information.

Keep them coming!

One of the reasons I find myself sinking deeper and deeper into the vintage abyss of JLC!

 

 

Thank you very much for your kind words, Fernando!

Your Vintage time travel about Ads and Art is a keeper, a very nice reference , )
- but also a pleasure to read and look at !!

( Some I had known, eg from Marv's also great post about 'A Journey Through Vintage Ads'
- maybe a nice further read and some on the 'Éloge du Temps from Nicolas ' ..

-- but you had another focus, slightly other twist and add'l context).
ENJOYABLE , indeed !! )

Thanks for again a very nice effort,
Your Series on the way to becoming a sort of Classic,

- .. Keep them coming please !

Best, hs

Indeed, Marv has a stunning selection of ads!

 

I still some of them in my book…

 

But I am working on filling the blanks!

 

Thank you very much, my friend – very kind of you!

These are really great examples of illustration and graphic design. A lost art.

Nowadays it’s most about beautiful people…

 

Don’t get me wrong – I do like to look at beautiful people, but the artwork is not the same anymore.

 

 

Thank you, Le Chef!

a real topper for me. Ads from my birth year and wedding year. It is still amazing how the ads pull one in, take you back and still marvel at how great these watches look. You have also reminded me to revive my Vintage watches, waiting patiently for some time in the sun.

Great joy in reading,
many thanks,
Tim

And take a lot of pics for us to see!

 

 

My pleasure – happy you enjoy!

 

And even more happy if you revive your vintage (with or without pics).
