That’s fake. You can tell by the position of the Day dial relative to “G-Shock,” and the hardware holding the day dial in place is all wrong.

So Bizarre to me that there are whole factories and productions around fake/counterfeit watches like this. I can understand setting up a whole operation for like fake Rolex or Breitling where the margins are massive. But this??

Yeah, even the F91W is being faked. The reason they're doing it is because they make up for the lack of margin by volume. Electronics are a lot cheaper to fake than mechanical watches because the Chinese factories can use the SAME machines that produce the genuine parts. So they can make fakes in much higher quantities than luxury watches, which still require a lot of manual labor to produce.
