Rare 1970s Tudor Racing Sponsorship Pic
Just came across this old pic when digging through the bookshelves at home. It was taken at the 1972 Macau Grand Prix, a couple of years after the first Tudor Chronograph was released.
Seiko was the official race timer (see signs at the back), having taken over from Omega a year or two earlier. (From the book Colour and Noise: 40 Years of the Macau Grand Prix, by Philip Newsome.)

The advert is fantastic. More’s the pity we seem to have lost those language skills now.
