Not sure what else there is to investigate. Marcello is a true expert and has already given you your answer.

Not only that , for a case that "has never been used" the chamfers are not period correct.

It means he is going shopping elsewhere for someone that agrees with him. Obviously he didn't like what he heard he about his fake case.

pics of rolexref (font)

Marcello`s opinions and comments are highly appreciated by me. My case might be a fake or not. But here are some pics of my rolex watches. I´m really interested about fonts. How can you tell by looking at ref that it is a fake (not the right font)?

different periods = different fonts.
your 5513 with valve has numbers fonts in use for sapphire glass watches and for late plastic glass ones ( but many years later than 1971 , time in which these subs with HEV have been produced ).
