Seeking advice - 1967 Rolex ref. 1500

Looking for some advice. I recently won an ebay auction for a 1960's Rolex Oyster Perpetual ref. 1500. I paid $1831 (I'd link to the auction but the forum won't let me post links until I have more posts).

When I received the watch, the dial had significantly more wear on the dial and hands than pictured on the ebay listing. Seller is willing to accept a return for a full refund. I'm on the fence.

What do you think? Did I get ripped off? I really like the watch but I feel like it isn't worth all the money I bid in part because of the wear on the dial.

The last photo is the watch on my wrist. It's hard to capture the wear on the dial in a photograph--the dial is kinda shiny and changes colors in different light. Sometimes it's dark grey, sometimes it's this lighter blue/purple/grey like in this picture.

The rest of the photos are from the ebay listing.

Thanks for your help!
