The seller is the United Way (a charity), in Lexington KY, just East of Louisville (home of the derby). Sheila Bayes is a well respected store in the community. It may be worth someone's time to call her at 859-225-4043 and learn more, perhaps obtain photos of the actual watch (instead of the stock photo).
I've seen the new ceramic blue subs and to call it "Kentucky Blue" might just be insulting to the grass... |

I doubt the intent is to defraud anyone. Perhaps the ad was not well researched. Here is the donor's website: http://www.sheliabayes.com/
I purchased a pen from them last year while living in Murfreesboro. |

I that case , maybe someone should contact the seller and point this out to them . It would be a shame that this listing would get pulled instead of raising funds for a good cause . IMHO that is .
