Cool Cosmograph ads

You are seeing it here first, an outstanding 1965 advertisement announcing the introduction of the Rolex Daytona.

Check out the price!

Great ads, Dave. That DJ looks like it could have come off the line yesterday. A real timeless classic.

Cool Daytona add Dave, think you could add a few zeros to the 1965 price to what they are selling for today.Think my Father paid almost £800 for his in the early 80s.
