Takes a licking and keeps on ticking

Recommended Posts

Somebody on the IWC forum posted a link to a youtube video of reps being demolished.

It reminded me of the Timex watch commercials that I watched when I was a boy hosted by a news anchorman-turned-pitchman named John Cameron Swayze. The slogan of his commercials was worthy of our friend Nanuq: "takes a licking and keeps on ticking!"

Another favorite quote: "You know it's waterproof because it says so right on the dial."

Also, you have to love the prices.

Which is your favorite-- the arrow clip, the outboard motor, the baking test? TIMEX WATCH TV COMMERCIAL COLLECTION
