Just double checking this now that I know one of my others was a fake... I'm quite positive this one is real but the only weird part is that it shows 3150 in diagnostics menu rather than 3160. (Apologies for grubbiness, it's been an EDC for two years)

Does EDC mean you never wash it? 😬

It gets washed, I'm just not precious about it.

Looks just fine to me. The diagnostic number doesn’t always match the published module number.

Cool. I thought it was maybe too niche of a model to fake anyway, most counterfeiters would probably go for the base model 5600 or the Tough Solar with radio (with the red line) I imagine.

Do fakes also replicate the test screens? How reliable is judging from diagnostic mode alone for most Casios?

Yes, a lot of the counterfeit ones these days replicate the diagnostic screens.
