it looks like a legit pinarello, it would take a lot to fake the pantographing.
it probably is a montello, I wouldn't doubt that particularly but it isn't the most desirable looking one out there. the earlier frames from the 80s with chrome stays and forks, to me at least, are way more appealing with era correct campag groupset.
I've got a pinarello from early 80s and its pretty special, I've had it longer than any other road bike I've got. definitely worth seeking one out, pinarello frames from that period seem to have something about them and is one of the few bikes I've had where random people come up and start talking to you about it in the street.
500e doesn't seem like an unfair price, buy it if you like it
