What is it about that frame that looks like a Pinarello?

Graphics (DT) don't look right? No head tube badge. No pics of any of the signature Pinarello details from the period.

Guy says he bought it 3 years ago NOS and states it's a '77 - how is that definitive?

I have a mid - 70's Pinarello and am always on the lookout for early models - you just don't see them very often. Would love to see others from that time period that we know are authentic - this one I have my doubts about based on what I know - but I would love to know if this could really be the real thing. Apparently this bike is local to me - maybe I can get some more pics of the lugs/crown/stay caps etc.
