7 An advertisement for an analog watch in which the watch reads any time NOT between 10:05 and 10:15, inclusive. [From Thyros: In most printed advertisements for analog watches, the time displayed on all the watches is 10 minutes after 10. Why is this? Is there some sort of sinister conspiracy among watch manufacturers? Actually, there's a good reason for this phenomenon. Dealers of watches often sell many different brands of timepieces, so the pictures used in their advertisements come from several companies. However, a store running a sale on watches might want to print a newspaper ad picturing each of the watches on sale. If these watches all read different times, it might appear to the reader as if the watches are broken - not something the dealer wishes to imply. To avoid such an implication, snapshots of watches used for advertising purposes almost always depict watches reading 10 minutes after 10 o'clock.
From Vraal: That might explain why all of the times are consistent. I believe a logical reason for picking a time such as 10:10 is that this configuration most often would not obscure the brand name of the watch that is typically printed in the center of the dial.
From Vryce: I searched hi and low on the web, and the only manufacturer that consistently did not use 10:05 - 10:15 was Seiko. PS, Sorry the image on the left is so blurry.]
