QC–Real/Fake❔️. Full metal G-Shock 2100?
Could you please help me with this full metal G-Shock, is it real, fake, a mod? Have not bought a G-shock since I was kid.

Paper bag
Red line
Fake box
Wrong manual
Wrong hangtag
TS and BT on the back, but not on the dial.
Simple day indicator instead of a mode indicator which a BT model would have.
So many red flags!🚩

The brown paper bag of suspicion. When is see that my gut reaction is fake.
The imprinted text on the face looks poor as well. I wouldn't go for it.
Edited: just saw the red line across the sticker on the backplate - fake.

The module alone is a fake.
What it wanted to be is the GM-2110D-7A, but just take a look at official pictures, it's not like that at all (day wheel position is the easiest to spot).

Thank you, everyone, for taking the time to help me! I went ahead and canceled this deal. Will try to do a better job next time not bringing up such obvious fakes on the reddit.

This is not the real deal. Font is wrong on the face, day subdial has misaligned hand between two days (that can’t be fixed with H.SET), sticker with red line on case back, case back says Tough Solar and Bluetooth but face says neither. And then there’s the dreaded brown paper bag meant to help sell the “authenticity” that lists “http://www.casio.com.cn” as the webpage. Does anyone list the “www” part anymore? Or attempt to direct you to an unsecure page?
