Bernie Ecclestone newspaper advertisement

Post by Aural Scripture »

Not sure what's to be gained (by the watch company at least) using the image of a bruised and battered Bernie Eccleston in a newspaper ad. Is it an attempt at humour or a two fingered gesture towards his attackers? Very strange.

Yeah it's really bizarre innit - It doesn't exactly say "wow I need me one of those!"

Seems to me it's saying "Do I spend £11,000 on one, or nick it.........yep, I'll nick it, whilst giving someone who's obviously got far too much money a good kicking into the bargain"

A ridiculous advert :smt009

Bernie's looking for a freebie :wink:
