Fun Fact
Did you know that most watches displayed in advertisements are consistently set to 10:10? This is not a mere coincidence. The watch’s hands are strategically positioned to frame the brand name, often located below the 12 o’clock mark, and to subtly create a “smiley face” effect. This is a psychological technique designed to evoke positive feelings and associations in the viewer, highlighting the industry’s long-standing commitment to subtle persuasion.
