    Hans Wilsdorf anticipates the end of World War II in Christmas 1944.

    "On this momentous Christmas, with its bright beams of new hope surging in the hearts of all, it is uniquely symbolic to commemorate the day of remembrance with the gift of gifts... a masterpiece of the watchmaker's craft by Rolex."

    Wilsdorf's admiration of the RAF in 1941 - plus an astute bit of marketing. The advert appeared in Canada.
