| In case anyone accuses you of not comparing like to like, even a contemporary Bulova commercial is much more similar to the latter than the former:

| I'm not sure it is valid to use the first ad ever as a basis for comparison. At this time it was a novelty to even have a television – of course an incredibly basic ad would work. And how much do you think they had to pay for an ad on a very new technology? I doubt much. |

| Everyone's trying too hard to stand out, but honestly the first one would stand out more today, despite being a still image! |

| Wow, I haven't watched any ads for a while and that was pretty jarring. |
