Notice anything wrong with this ad?

Saw this today alongside a freeway in Southern California.
Laughed out loud when I got closer to it...

It did say "Actual model may vary". But you'd think you can find a picture of a real Daytona

It’s the typical accident when a non watch person designs an advertisement.

Can't be a Daytona. Everyone knows Daytona 41 has a date at 4:30 not 3!

I'd be wary of what is offered at the buffet.

So many good casinos just down the 15. I have no idea who wants to make the trip to this place.

...a person who wants to win what may, or may not, be a Daytona? If they strike out here, they may be able to pick up a LOREX of their choice elsewhere.
