OP, the listing photo, if zoomed in, shows lower bezel wear, as well as clasp wear.
Doesn't look as bad as your photo due to your use of flash and the angle you chose (flat, straight on), whereas his is angled, with lower, 6 o'clock side closer to lens and 12 o'clock further from lens, with no flash that can highlight defects on SS. This creates an optical illusion effect, slightly blurring background 12 o'clock side).

Clearly you are right in that the photos and the description do not match but that is definitely the same watch, creatively captured, either by intent or not. This is an excellent thread for many to learn from that not of all captured on film is what it appears.

Again, I hope it can be resolved for you. Please update when possible.
