Wrist watch advertisements
 
I enjoy nice wrist watches and always look at wrist watch ads with interest.

But I've noticed that almost all wrist watches pictured in ads display the time of 10:08, some 10:10.

Is this some sort of tradition?

Is the time 10:08 of some historical significance?

Or is it purely for aesthetics?

Just wondering.

Cheers
Greg
