Question on flip sight and band, real?

Optical illusion sir......... Better go back and look at the first 5 photos. Agree, the last photo is a little confusing.

If one looks close at the band and the swivel, then the different shades of gray appear. Not the same color as the barrel and the swivel is different from the band and the barrel. Also the swivel appears to have a sand blasted surface that was then parkerized.

I think the band has been refinished as well.
