The reason is the artwork was done for the box well before the speedo was ever finalised. When it was first announced the idea was for it to be waterproof as per the QC2, but for design reasons only known to LRP this was not possible (components getting too hot when sealed in we are led to believe)
Since it was so long in production the already printed boxs were in fact wrong when they finalised the speedo, but for cosmetic and practicality reasons it made more sense to just use the original box and put stickers over the wrong bits. If you also look if you peel off the round "world champion" sticker on the front it says "lifetime warranty" underneath, which it now no longer has either, only a 25 year one (may as well be lifetime, but legal reasons prevent it!!!)
