I came across this used listing today. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why the seller was holding a sausage while they photographed it.

What’s the strangest advert you’ve seen?

That's an advert? What were they smoking in Geneva that day?

Oh, it's a listing, not a Rolex advert. Well, that's just people for you. We're all stupid in one way or another, as evidenced by that picture. I hope they got all the grease out of the links.

Not necessarily strange but all too common is people selling watches they don't have using photos of a watch they don't have to depict the watch they don't have.

Nothing says “Rolex” like a sausage. Nothing says “explore” like a roulette wheel.

Polished center "links"... get it?? Sigh.

That's not a sausage. It's his GMT finger.

If the seller wants 1300 over retail he'll need to throw in more than a free sausage.

A sausage and a roulette wheel as props makes a change from a map and a compass. This has bothered me all day - I can’t think what conversation could lead to this happening in a watch store/ jeweller…

Click bait. It’s not a Rolex advertisement; it’s an Instagram post.

People are looking at it and commenting. Seems like an effective advert to me.
