Judgement call required for this deal

Hi folks, 
 
Hope all you guys having good time. 
 
If probably you could say yourself that you are a kind of expert in rolex stuff, then here I need your opinion.
 
Just couple of weeks I met a great guy here offering a genuine sub c bracelet(97200) at a really attractive price. Someone may know what it was. 
 
Btw, he purchased it from VRF and was going to use it for his project. but for some reasons, he ended up with giving up the project and sold it to me.
 
 
So simply the issue is I dont think it`s gen 97200 but he believes its a gen bracelet. So here we decided to ask for advice and now Im asking you any info, feedback, advice, and judgement. 
 
Here below are the clues why I think its fake.
 
1. It doesnt take 2mm thickness generic spring bars.(only takes 1.8mm)
 
2. SEL width are different on both(one side 20.00mm another side 20.07mm)  
 
3. Poor quality on link screw finishing
 
And here is the evidence from him.
 
1. The purchase from a trusted member on VRF.
 
Since we couldnt sort out this issue and still on a discussion, those of you who know well about this matter will help us to make this clear. 
 
Here some pictures for your judgement. 
 
 
Noob 2mm spring bar doesnt fit in. He might know this fact before he send it out.

I hope the guy you bought it from makes good on this. My guess is he's telling you about some "project" that he didn't complete, but he's really dumping a bogus part after finding out he got screwed.

Your friend who sold you the band should be contacting the seller to confront him, chances are he will not put up a fight about it. You send the band back to your friend and once the seller pays him back he can pay you back.

Guys chill a bit. Nothing happened yet.

I was the seller and the buyer on TRF. Seems I got scammed. I am in contact with the seller there. If anybody knows how to help: please.

watchfeund I do not know VRF but cc33 and Panerai153 know the ropes there, sure they will help you out. Sorry to both of you but at least it's two known guys here so no worries there just have to work on original seller.

Thank you so much. I will contact them.

My plan: refund the user here and then move on to the seller. I have the feeling this will take a long time and end in nothing.

He wants me to send it back to him so he can check it. After I send him the perfect pictures if the buyer here he did not respond anymore.

I suggest you send it back to him with tracking and signature required. He will/should refund you once he gets it, if he doesn't pls let us know.
