Why it crown winding screw seems "not flush in enough - have some gap / different" from photo of gen in Panerai website?

See bellow :

1st photo is Ebay seller photo

2nd photo is Pam 499 from website : www.panerai.com/en/collections/watch-collection/luminor-1950/luminor-marina-1950-3-days-automatic-acciaio---44mm_pam00499.html

No, there isn't any new stock of the PAM499 with the updated P.9000 movement if that's what you're asking.

How about my main question on, is that ebay listing genuine, at least based on winding crown position to watch case?
(based on above comparison photo)

Like I mentioned in my PM reply to you, don't compare to Panerai.com pictures as some of those are computer generated and as such may be different from the actual watch. Also, they may be using the prototype watch in cases where the actual watch is used so it may differ from the mass production watch.
