Whitworth’s Diamond Watch
Woman's Own / 21st March 1969
Blimey. Here’s another implausibly expensive competition prize, all to give Whitworth’s marketing department some new ideas. I love the way they taunt the reader with the idea that they should imagine that they’re in a job that they were very unlikely to get in real life! Anyway, if my calculations are to be believed, the watches here are worth about £5000, which is gobsmackingly expensive. Whitworth’s really WERE in need of inspiration…
