In this case I would have to disagree. The seller, who is not a first time seller, sold a watch head with a particular serial number series noted in the advertisement. Now the buyer has a letter from Rolex about a watch 2 years later that has a different serial number series.
Until that was cleared up, I wouldn't give the buyer anything. Trusted seller doesn't mean sucker. Maybe old photos could be retrieved, maybe old emails between the seller and his supplier, but without that, no way.
These threads often take a turn for the bizarre, this one was no exception.
