Hi Wren
That is a very interesting point.
We know modern watch designers are copying shapes/stiles from 30s/40s and 50s.

Yet advertising is completely different.
Most adverts from 20s/30s are all WORDS and few pictures.

Anyway, I buy a lot of adverts - we can learn much from them

1950s ad for Esquire solid-gold watch bands

Not many of these vintage solid gold bands are found today, likely being scrapped over the years.
The vintage gold-filled bands are now being bought-up for gold reclamation.
