Jaeger-LeCoultre

For once, no picture of a watch, but of an ad, an old one from 1958.

" All over the world ... the Time ... Jeager-LeCoultre. 1833 - 1958. "

 

2 reasons to post this picture now:

First, this is one of these documents about the Jubilé, which was a terrific moment in the life of the Manufacture, but you all know that, now.

Then, last but not least, it is a nice reminder of our international gathering, which will be in one week, now.

So, JLC guys, be there, this is an event you should not miss.

Bring your JLC(s) and your passion with you!

All the best.

Nicolas.

PS: Can't remember where I found this photo, sorry to not be able to credit it.

That is a nice GTG - logo for the upcoming JLC - gathering !

Will be there, the two of us, in fact ..

With pleasure, bringing some modest ones with us..

Looking forward to seeing everybody,

Best,
hs

PS:
- Isn't it from the lovely Eloge Du Temps post with all the beautiful posts, and ads,
(although not sure from where its origin).

As for your question, I have to check, but all the pics are in my other computer...

I HAVE TO buy a new one, definitely!

I'm sure this IGOTT will be a blast!

All the best,

Nicolas.

That's really nice:
- Indeed, the central ellipse goes through mid Europe and cuts
close through CA ,( close to Las Vegas almost).

This will be a very nice GTG, glad that 'La Force de JLC' appears
to be well represented.

Nice to look forward,
and to see many friends of LGM, there.

Best again,
Hs

You're a terrible bad man Nicolas ... but still mon ami (see my email ... ... )

Enjoy this IGOTT 2!

and "Whatever happens in Vegas, remains in Vegas!"

For the good wishes, and for these two great examples of good advertising.

Fascinating,  particularly the last one!

Best, my friend.

When I saw the response by Marv and the additional 2 ads, to make it a beautiful threesome,
I did remember:

Was my error: so not the post Eloge du Temps, but a wonderful post by Marv, dated Aug 08, 2008
about Vintage ads:

The excerpt from there, derived from Marv's so delightful post:=============:

1958 world's fair in Brussels

Expo '58 marked the return of the world's fair after an 18 years absense due to World War II. This event took place in Brussels and was considered as one of the most successful world's fairs.

Some famous Jaeger-LeCoultre watches (among them the geophysic, memovox and futurematic) were shown in the pavilion of Switzerland.

The 3 following ads were published in the context of this world's fair: "1958, In the whole world, the time Jeager-LeCoultre."============Anyway - from all over, toute le monde,
What a year, this 1958 and the next, with such pieces !

Merci, Messieurs !

Best, hs

All these old ads are very interesting and often very artistic, more art the commercial…

 

Will try to put together a post soon…

 

Soon it’s time – I am sure you guys will have a blast at the IGOTT2!

 

Please take a lot of photos for us who won’t be there and keep the JLC flag high!

 

 

 

Best, my friend

 

Blomman

Sure the JLC Flag will be high, with all our friends who will attend...

And I am pretty sure they will share these moments with us, here.

We'll certainly have another great moment to lkive in July, if all is ok for you.

All the best, my friend.

Nicolas.

Vacation whole July…

 

So I will definitely be there, my friend!

Will try to make it a bit bigger, though.

Best,

Nicolas.

I've already reached LA and will be driving to Vegas in a few days.
I'm so excited.
Will take lots of pics for sure.
